I think we need to go beyond the open records request for the budget and get ALL EMAILS relating to the budget from anyone in the mayors office, public talking heads, metro council and so on. ALl emails are open records as we have been notified of. Lets take it from them and use the information for us. I am sure there were talks between him and the former CFO before she left.

I too have to purchase another car. Screwdge can have my car. I refuse to lease a car from the city. Let's go 10-15 deep to the local car dealerships. They will have a bidding war for our business. I can't wait to see his big head explode when he doesn't get our $$$.

The chief and fathead both said the changes would "have zero impact" on the citizens of the community. To all citizens reading this, it would be impacted by the fact off-duty officers would do less enforcement during our "off-time". I am parking the car as we must for our future contracts. I want the citizens to know this is in no way a retaliatory act towards the majority of you, it is simply something the fine men and women in blue need to do. We are cops but we are citizens as well. Park em' members...

KRS 61.872 Right to inspection -- Limitation.

(1) All public records shall be open for inspection by any person, except as otherwise provided by KRS 61.870 to 61.884, and suitable facilities shall be made available by each public agency for the exercise of this right. No person shall remove original copies of public records from the offices of any public agency without the written permission of the official custodian of the record.

(2) Any person shall have the right to inspect public records. The official custodian may require written application, signed by the applicant and with his name printed legibly on the application, describing the records to be inspected. The application shall be hand delivered, mailed, or sent via facsimile to the public agency.

(3) A person may inspect the public records:

(a) During the regular office hours of the public agency; or

(b) By receiving copies of the public records from the public agency through the mail. The public agency shall mail copies of the public records to a person whose residence or principal place of business is outside the county in which the public records are located after he precisely describes the public records which are readily available within the public agency. If the person requesting the public records requests that copies of the records be mailed, the official custodian shall mail the copies upon receipt of all fees and the cost of mailing.

(4) If the person to whom the application is directed does not have custody or control of the public record requested, that person shall notify the applicant and shall furnish the name and location of the official custodian of the agency's public records.

(5) If the public record is in active use, in storage or not otherwise available, the official custodian shall immediately notify the applicant and shall designate a place, time, and date for inspection of the public records, not to exceed three (3) days from receipt of the application, unless a detailed explanation of the cause is given for further delay and the place, time, and earliest date on which the public record will be available for inspection.

(6) If the application places an unreasonable burden in producing public records or if the custodian has reason to believe that repeated requests are intended to disrupt other essential functions of the public agency, the official custodian may refuse to permit inspection of the public records or mail copies thereof. However, refusal under this section shall be sustained by clear and convincing evidence.
