ANDERSON – The Madison County Planning Department has been found in violation of the Access to Public Records Act.
Luke Britt, public access counselor, ruled Wednesday the Planning Department violated the request for public records filed by local resident Sean Smith.
Madison County Attorney Jeff Graham said Thursday he was informed of the determination by planning director Brad Newman.
He said Newman had experienced some health issues and thought a reply was made.

Britt in his opinion stated that Newman failed to file a response with the Public Access Counselor in the complaint filed by Smith on Feb. 18.
