| | | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2013 April 25 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Plaintiff, Chicago condominium unit owner Gary Palm, had a dispute with his condominium association, and, in 1999, sought access to some of its records and financial information. The City of Chicago, a home rule unit, has an ordinance concerning such requests. It requires production within three business days. Production was resisted on the theory that the ordinance was beyond the Citys constitutional home rule authority because state statutes on the same subject have different provisions. These statutes allow 30 days to respond to such requests, while also limiting the age of the requested documents to 10 years and requiring that a proper purpose be stated. The Citys ordinance placed no age limit on the material and required no such statement. | | | | Date Created: | 04-25-2013 | | | | Agency ID: | Docket No. 110505 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000064870 Original UID: 182852 FIRST WORD: Palm | |
