18-IB37 8/14/2018 FOIA Opinion Letter to Mr. Herman Holloway, Jr. re: FOIA Complaint Concerning the Wilmington Housing Authority

Petitioner alleged two FOIA violations against the Wilmington Housing Authority: that a vote to approve a topic discussed in executive session gave insufficient notice of the topic to the public and that it was not properly noticed in the agenda. DECIDED: First, it was incorrect to label the purpose of the executive session as “personnel” in the agenda. This Office determined that WHA committed a technical violation which required no remediation. Second, no FOIA violation was found for the allegation of insufficient notice with regard to the vote.
