Details: Under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act, we formally request that following the close of your current fiscal year your office provide us with public spending information, including both capital and operating expenditures for payments made by or on behalf of The University of Connecticut System during fiscal year 2024 for the following University of Connecticut campuses: Storrs, Hartford, and Avery Point, as well as the University of Connecticut Health Center. Specifically, sortable by campus as noted in the “Division SL” column, for any payee, other than a regular employee or student, paid a cumulative total amount of more than $5,000, we seek the payee name, address, and the cumulative total dollar amount paid to the subject payee over the relevant time period. The $5,000 threshold was established to minimize reporting for respondents. If a data sort of this type is not practical, please provide the requested information for all non-employee payees. This is the same format information that Kayla Postler was kind enough to provide via email for fiscal year 2023.
The information is to be used for research aimed at identifying patterns of spending by public entities. No part of the data will be used as a mailing list and your supplying the information cannot be construed as an endorsement of either your payees or our work.
We are willing to reimburse your office for any reasonable expense incurred in providing the requested information if an estimate of costs is provided for our approval before the work is performed. We would prefer to receive the data in CSV, text, or PDF document or Excel spreadsheet attached to an email.
Should you have questions or need to advise us to redirect this request, we can be reached at 800-810-3846 or via e-mail at HigherEd@acmeresearch.com. Kindly confirm receipt of this letter and contact our office to let us know your time frame for a response. Thank you for your assistance!
Yours truly,
Megan Russell-Erlich
Research Coordinator
