To submit an FOI request:
-
Requests must be made in writing. We recommend using the FOI Request Form; however, a letter or email is also acceptable.
-
Requests must be for records or documents. General questions and requests for information are typically handled directly by the appropriate District department.
-
Requests should be as specific as possible and include enough detail to help staff locate the records being requested.
-
Requests must include the applicant’s contact information, such as a mailing address, phone number, or email address.
-
Applicants should indicate how they would like to receive the records (e.g., electronically, by mail, for pickup, or by viewing them in person).
A non-refundable application fee of $10.00 is required for all formal FOI requests, except requests for an applicant's own personal information. Depending on the size and complexity of the request, additional processing fees may apply. Requests will not be processed until any required application fee has been received.
Completed requests may be submitted by email, mail, fax, or in person to:
