Gov. Martin O’Malley Advisor Pat Foerster will not disclose the recommendations made by public officials in support of Harford County Board of Education appointees Alysson Krchnavy and Leonard Wheeler.
In a letter dated July 25th, Foerster responded to our request that this information be released. For the record, we did not cite any statutes; we simply asked that the documents be made available as a matter of public record.
Well, at least the public knows why are leaders are who they are…
so Cindy……what to do now?…you want discloser and you cant get it…you want results and cant get it.

Mayors and councilman of small towns become county councilman and than deligates and senators…Fed , State and local.
No issue is small enough to warrent being ignored !
Ignorance of an issue is fertilizer !
Go Dagger !

You might try asking the people involved to release these records. The law is pretty strict about releasing personal information about government employees so its not surprising that they denied it.
