FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUESTED

Dear Treasurer Topinka:

1. I am hereby filing a Freedom of Information request and asking to have faxed back to me today by the close of business a list of all banks in which the State of Illinois through your office has deposited overnight or checking account funds, i.e. funds which were not competitively bid as time deposits.

2. If you have checking accounts which have been competitively bid, this FOI request also asks for copies of any contracts between the state and bank.

3. I would like a listing of all deposits which have been made to or in the Broadway National Bank since January 1, 2005.

4. I would also like a “hard” copy of the above information mailed to the above street address today.

Please bill me for any faxing or copying charges for this information.


Respectfully submitted,



ANDY MARTIN
