How he appears in the record
John R. Willamowski, Jr. is an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney for Allen County — i.e. the County's own counsel — and he appears at two load-bearing points:
- Originator of the County–Bistrozzi Mutual NDA. The NDA recitals state that "correspondence has been received from Assistant Prosecutor John Willamowski Jr., requesting the Board enter into a Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement with Bistrozzi, LLC." The County's own counsel originated the instrument whose §6 became the contractual records-withholding engine (≥10 business days' notice to Bistrozzi before answering any PRR; disclose only the legal minimum; seek confidential treatment).
- County counsel of record on the Roadwork Development Agreement (and a notice copy recipient), per the RDA notice block.
Why this matters
The NDA he originated is one of three stacked records-withholding mechanisms in the deal (NDA §6 / CRA §22 / RDA §9.13), layered on top of the front-end R.C. 4582.58 econ-dev shield. That the County's own counsel requested the Board bind itself to advance-notice-to-the-developer before answering public-records requests is central to the mandamus narrative.
Research status
Read from the cited extractions. The "originator" characterization is quoted from the NDA's own recitals (document); his broader role in the County's records posture is a lead to verify against primary correspondence, not an accusation.
Identity — do not conflate with his father. This is John R. Willamowski Jr., the Assistant County Prosecutor. His father, John R. Willamowski Sr., is a separate, still-active figure in the Ohio judiciary (the "Jr." in the slug and name is load-bearing). Confirm which Willamowski is named on any instrument before relying on identity in a filing.
