I got a zip file from the government but it won't unzip properly

[Paul Mooring]

There's some null characters (look like ^@ in vim) in this file causing your problem, run `file -I <file_name>` and you'll see it's charset is binary.  I found some null chars on line 155 (grep for non-ascii characters to find them).  You can remove them with sed or tr and be on your happy way.

Subject: I got a zip file from the government but it won't unzip properly

It seems to unzip fine but the document that opens freezes libre writer and when I try to open it with a  text editor it complains about encoding. here is the file:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/q5x24uzhyrv3mo1/az-foiarefund-list.zip

Any ideas how to open it?
