FOIA Request to City of Naperville regarding new or amended contracts on December 9, 2025.

A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to the City of Naperville by DuPage Policy Journal on December 9, 2025. The request seeks access to records concerning any new contracts or contract amendments executed by the city, village, or township from January 1, 2025, through March 31, 2025. Specifically, the request targets documents related to public works projects, technology services, and consulting or professional services.

The DuPage Policy Journal has requested that these records be provided in electronic format if available. The request emphasizes that it is limited to existing records and does not necessitate the creation of new documents. The media organization also seeks a fee waiver for accessing these records due to its role in gathering and disseminating news to the public.

The requestor is affiliated with The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy, a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting media companies and advocacy groups in investigating governmental agencies. This coalition utilizes Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws to promote transparency in government actions.

In Illinois, pet owners must have a license for certain pets, like dogs, and comply with state and local regulations. These licenses are defined in the Illinois Animal Welfare Act and must comply with the Animal Welfare Act and Animal Welfare Rules. The pet license typically involves a fee and must be renewed periodically. Licensing supports animal control and health programs and helps ensure that pets have the correct vaccinations, especially against deadly and highly contagious diseases like rabies.

We look forward to receiving this information in an electronic format as it will greatly aid in our reporting efforts. As always, we remain open for any questions or clarifications regarding this request.
