Board approves public-records software (recorded as 'Just Foyer') to manage FOIA requests
Summary
The board approved entering into an agreement with a public-records software vendor recorded in the transcript as 'Just Foyer' to streamline FOIA requests and manage body-worn camera materials; legal counsel reviewed the agreement and recommended approval.
Bart presented a proposal to contract with a public-records software platform recorded in the meeting transcript as "Just Foyer," telling the board the software would centralize FOIA request intake across departments, help manage body-worn camera video, and filter bot-generated requests.
Bart said the city had demoed several platforms and contacted other Indiana municipalities using the product; staff cited Noblesville and Plainfield as references. Alex reviewed the contract and said it is legally fit for the city’s intended use and recommended approval. The board approved the agreement by voice vote.
The meeting record spells the vendor name as "Just Foyer." The transcript notes the product will reduce staff time spent processing requests and is expected to aid police records workflow, particularly the handling of body-camera files.
