FLAT ROCK · PUBLIC-RECORDS TRANSPARENCY GRADE
A
20/24
Flat Rock gets an A.
Wayne County runs the largest unified court system in Michigan — full Odyssey digitization since 2018, free public docket search, public booking data, and a NextRequest portal that adds accountability the state FOIA process lacks. The drag is statewide: MI FOIA has no real fulfillment deadline.
Note: County-level grade from Wayne County applies — no separate city grade yet computed for Flat Rock.
