The following tips may reduce response times and avoid costs for public records requests:

• Avoid overly broad requests - be as specific as possible. Broad or vague requests may require reviewing many records or large amounts of data, resulting in more extensive costs and slower responses. Ex.: Instead of “all emails regarding the homeless,” ask for “all emails regarding feeding the homeless.”
• Provide date ranges when requesting emails and correspondence. Example: Instead of “all emails regarding to the homeless,” ask for “emails regarding cold night shelter for the homeless from the past 3 months.”
• If your request has several parts, break it into more than one request.
• Do not include questions relating to the subject of the request, requests or legal opinions, or requests for service.
• Before submitting a records request, please search the online web portal and the city’s website for available documents.
