On a recent trip to explore Kansas “open records” at several state government offices in Topeka, I encountered these boxes stored in a public hallway in an unidentified state government building. My “gut feeling” is that these documents should not be in a public area and viewable by the public.
Shouldn’t these records have some controls over them? I’m a big proponent of open records, but these records may be too open.
