Beaver Dam case in the news
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writes today about the possible effects of the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s July 11th ruling that the Beaver Dam Area Development Corporation is a quasi-governmental body subject to Wisconsin’s Public Records and Open Meetings Laws. Read it here.
“In its July 11 ruling, the court said factors that can be used to determine whether a private corporation is subject to the records and meetings laws are its source of financing; whether it serves a public function; whether it is subject to government control; and whether the public thinks it’s a government entity.”
