Welcome to the FOIA page for the Township of Lyons.
NOTE: The Village of Lyons is different than the Township of Lyons.
By filling out the above online form, the FOIA request will be sent to Township Clerk Elyse Hoffenberg at ehoffenberg@lyonsts.com. A FOIA request can also be made via a printable FOIA form and sent to ehoffenberg@lyonsts.com or the Township office at 6404 Joliet Rd, Countryside, IL 60525.
The Freedom of Information Act allows the public to request access to certain records from federal agencies. The agencies are required to provide the requested information unless it falls under any of the nine exemptions which protect matters of personal privacy, national security, and law enforcement.
Submitting a FOIA request is an easy process; start by checking if the information you want is publicly available. If not, simply send an email to ehoffenberg@lyonsts.com and reasonably describe the records you seek. We’ll send a confirmation that your request was received within one business day; the records will be provided within 3-5 business days depending on the request.
