Requested Information
Under the Maryland Public Information Act, we formally request that your office provide us with
public spending information, including both capital and operating expenditures, for payments
made by or on behalf of the Howard County Public School System during fiscal year ending in
2026. Specifically, for any payee, other than an employee or student, who was paid a cumulative
total amount of $10,000 or more, we seek the payee name, address, and the cumulative total dollar
amount paid to the subject payee over the relevant time period. The $10,000 threshold was
established to minimize reporting for respondents. This is the same information that your office
was kind enough to provide to us via email for fiscal year 2025.
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.
