A few days ago I attempted to obtain access to records concerning the Bank f Chattanooga using the Tennessee Open Records law. The online request is accessed through the
Chattanooga government pages.
My request was denied on the grounds that the open records act only applies to residents of the state of Tennessee. Might I call upon one of you to make the request for me?
Specifically, I was interested in the following:
Requester Type: Other
Records Requested:Records pertaining to the charter, funding, and early
operation of the Bank of Chattanooga and its authorization to issue
currency up to and including the time it ceased to issue bank notes.
