Public Records Request

2. To expedite your request and to eliminate opportunities for error, please fill out this Public Records Act Request form completely with as much detail as possible and identify specifically the records you are requesting. Requests should reasonably describe identifiable records prepared, owned, used or retained by the District. Please note that if you are requesting the opportunity to inspect records stored at this office, the District must be given time to locate and review documents that are responsive to your request in order to comply with the provisions of the Public Records Act. You will, therefore, be requested to make an appointment to return at a later date to review the documents.

   If you are requesting copies of public records, you will be charged the direct cost of duplication for any documents received at $.15 per page. Documents will not be copied until payment has been received. Please carefully read the back of this form for information on copying costs and other pertinent information

22. Public records are open to inspection at all times during the District’s office hours. District office hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Any reasonable portion of a record shall be available for inspection by any person requesting the record after deletion of the portions that are exempted by law. It is also the policy of the District that except for public records exempt from disclosure by express provisions of law, a request for a copy of reasonably-described identifiable records shall be made available with minimal delay to the requesting party. An exact copy shall be provided unless impracticable to do so.

    Requests must be for records in the possession of, prepared, owned, used or retained by the District and requests must be for clearly identifiable records. Copies will not be provided if disclosure is exempt in accordance with state law or would constitute an unreasonable burden on the operation of the District.

    You will be notified by e-mail within ten (10) days:

    · Whether the District requires an extension of time to determine whether it has records responsive to your request

    · Whether the District has records responsive to your request

    · Whether the District has records responsive to your request but which are exempt from disclosure and the reasons for exemption

    · Whether the District has records responsive to your request and the page count and cost of copying the records

    · Based on the page count, the time required to copy the documents requested. Copying of documents responsive to your request will be completed as soon as possible.

    If your request is to review documents rather than receive copies, the District will make an appointment at the time of presentation of your request for a future date to allow the District time to gather the documents and review them for compliance with the provisions of the Public Records Act.

    The charge for copies of any specifically described and identified public records not exempt from disclosure is $.15 per page for copied documents.

    Records stored by the District in electronic format will be provided in the same electronic format when requested by any person. Direct costs incurred by the District in providing certain electronic data, including direct costs of redacting confidential information or information not otherwise subject to disclosure, shall be paid by the recipient. The District is not required to produce records in an electronic format when the requested records are not available in electronic format at the time of the request.

    The District will provide an invoice for charges due. These charges are due and payable upon receipt of the invoice. Upon remittance of the invoice amount, the records requested will be copied and sent to the Requester.

    For further clarification, please refer to the California Public Records Act.
