  2. All requests should include the following information for the person making the request: full name, address, phone number, a detailed description of the records sought, date of request, and whether or not the request is for a commercial purpose. You must disclose whether your request is for a commercial purpose.

  3. Effective January 1, 2026, as a cybersecurity measure, the Cary Park District is not required to open email attachments or links to access the contents of a FOIA request. The Illinois Freedom of Information Act requires that the entire electronic FOIA request appear within the body of the email. 5 ILCS 140\/3(c).<\/li>\n
  4. Within 5 business days after the date the District receives the request, the FOIA officer will review and respond to the request. In certain circumstances specified in the Act, the FOIA officer may extend the time for a response for an additional 5 business days from the date of the original due date or such additional time as the person making the request and the FOIA officer agree.<\/li>\n
  5. The District may, in accordance with the Act, deny any request that is exempt from disclosure. If any of the materials requested are exempt under the Act, you will be notified in writing of these exemptions. Any denial, or partial denial, of your request may be appealed to the Public Access Counselor\u2019s office within the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Illinois.<\/li>\n
  6. If the requested document is maintained in an electronic format the Cary Park District will, if feasible, provide it in that format. For hard copies, the fee will be $.15 per page\/per side after the first 50 pages for standard black and white. Costs for color or oversize copies, certified copies, or recording media may be more and will be the actual cost incurred by the District.<\/li>\n
