A public commenter, Justin Bridal, told commissioners he had requested records from TEAS Inc. and cited Indiana Code 23‑17‑27‑2(a) saying members of a nonprofit have a right to inspect certain corporate records; he asked the county to retrieve documents TEAS apparently did not provide and suggested posting them on the county website.

The full story

During the public‑comment period, Justin Bridal said he had pursued public records requests related to TEAS Inc. and argued the county, as a member of that nonprofit, is entitled under state law to inspect and copy certain corporate records. Bridal cited Indiana Code 23‑17‑27‑2(a), which he read aloud as describing a member’s right to inspect articles of incorporation, bylaws, minutes of meetings of members, records of member actions for the past three years, and written communications to members generally within the past three years, including financial statements.
