A. R. Building Co. v. Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency

Opinion by

Judge Craig,

A. R. Building Company (Company) appeals from a refusal by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency (PHFA) to disclose, pursuant to the Right-to-Know Law (Law),1 a market survey which Pacific Realty Corporation (Pacific)2 had submitted to the PHFA with its application for funding, upon which -the PHFA had taken no final action.3

The appeal presents two questions. We must decide whether the PHFA is covered by the Law, and whether a market survey submitted by a private applicant is a “public record” before the agency has disposed of the application.
