Jim Main changes direction
2007 August 8
Gov. Bob Riley’s finance director on Monday made clear that requests for public documents by the media or the public should be “expeditiously handled” by the agency’s divisions.
In a new memo issued to all division heads in the Finance Department, Director James Main said previous guidelines regarding inquiries from reporters or the public do not apply to public documents.
Last week, Kathy Johnson, the department’s public affairs director, said any request by the media to view a public contract or other public document under the finance department’s control must first be approved by Main.
