FOIA Request to Town of Pembroke regarding new or amended contracts on February 1, 2026.
A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to the Town of Pembroke on February 1, 2026, by Old North News. The request seeks access to records related to new contracts and amendments to existing contracts that were executed, approved, or became effective during the immediately preceding calendar month.
The requested records include details such as the title of the contract or amendment, names of contracting parties, effective and approval dates, contract amounts or amended values, and descriptions of the goods or services covered. The request emphasizes that it is limited to existing records and does not require the creation of new documents. It also requests a fee waiver based on the requester’s role in disseminating information as a member of the media.
