So Which DCYF Personnel Were Included In Any Email Thread/Subthreads To My Initially Botched RTK?

“And perhaps why Mr. Martin quickly responded to me?  I didn’t know – and I still don’t know but I’m hoping to find out soon enough. How?” Inquiring minds want to know. Well, at least my mind wants to know: beside DCYF Investigative Specialist Amy Fortin and her lawyer Amanda Knifeton, there was also DHHS …

Part 3 – To Our ‘Grok Friends in the NH Legislature – Do You Know What Your DCYF Is Doing? Or Rather, NOT Doing?

Part 1 is here and you can see the Right To Know that I sent to a DCYF worker for a specific manual that I knew existed. Should have been rather simple: Pursuant to the Right to Know Law (RSA. 91-A), I am demanding access, within 5 business days, to the following governmental record: Provide, …

Hinsdale School District SAU92 – Ghosting Me Will Get You Nowhere Edition …

Back on March 22nd (posted on March 24th), I sent an RSA 91-A to SAU 92 / Hinsdale asking for their Public School Library card catalog.

NH State Rep Stephen Bogert at the Belknap County Delegation Meetings – Use of Email BCC feature vs RSA 91-A (NH’s Right To Know Law) – Two Responses

UPDATE WITH APOLOGY: “…the County Administrator, and the Commissioner ALL said that the Delegation Budget Review meetings HAD been publicly…” Apologies to Deb Shackett, Belknap County Administrator, for incorrectly stating that she also said that the subcommittees meetings had been properly noticed. She didn’t – she said she would look into it. So, I got …

A Tutorial: How to Create a Right To Know to Hold Your Government Accountable – Part 6

All “Law Reading” and no play makes Skip a dull guy – so being in a bit of a funk, I’ve written little. However, it’s a New Year and time to power through the writer’s block (yeah, that’s the ticket – although it doesn’t quite sum up the mood the last few days). So, back …

A Tutorial: How to Create a Right To Know to Hold Your Government Accountable – Part 5

In Part 4 we started to talk about Meetings – both those that Government MUST allow you to attend (RSA 91-A:2) called Open Meetings – and a bit of what a meeting ISN’T.  The differences ARE important. You can’t go blasting into a “meeting” thinking your guns can be blazing when it is a different …
