The above-captioned matter was scheduled to be heard as a contested case on 
April 17, 1998, at which time the complainants and the respondents appeared in order to 
present testimony and argument on the complaint. Mr. Fabian Mena also appeared and 
was admitted as a party, with the result that the caption above has been amended and 
restated as indicated.

	At an informal conference prior to the April 17, 1998 hearing, the complainants 
and the respondents reached the terms of an agreement in resolution of this contested 
case, wherein the parties agreed that the respondent authority would provide forthwith to 
the complainants the W-2 form requested, but with all information redacted except for 
respondent Mena’s name and his gross salary, which shall be disclosed. Based upon this 
agreement, the complainants informed the Commission that they wished to withdraw 
their complaint.

	The Commission warmly commends both the complainants and the respondents 
for working successfully to negotiate a non-litigated settlement of their earlier 
differences.

	The following order by the Commission is hereby recommended on the basis of 
the record concerning the above-captioned complaint:

	1.  The complaint is hereby dismissed.

	Approved by Order of the Freedom of Information Commission at its regular 
meeting of June 10, 1998.
