To celebrate 2014, let's reminisce a bit and revisit some of the most popular Municipal Minute blog posts of 2013.
10. The 10th most popular topic of 2013 was our 5/17/13 story discussing the Department of Labor's guidelines regarding when landscaping work will be subject to prevailing wages.
9. Another popular post in 2013 was the 10/7/13 discussion about the PAC's ruling that the Attorney General's denial of a FOIA request based on the unduly burdensome exception was proper. Maybe others found it interesting that the PAC has the authority to make rulings on its own office's compliance with FOIA?
