Tips for submitting public records act requests.

  • There are no special words required for a Public Records Act request. We ask that your request be as specific as possible in describing the document that you are seeking. Please include date ranges, record type (agenda, minutes, resolution, ordinance, permit) if applicable. We will work with you to narrow or clarify your request to locate the records you are seeking.
  • Your request must be for records that already exists - the Public Records Act does not require us to answer questions, perform legal research, or continue to provide records as they are created in the future.  Departments can be contacted directly if you have questions regarding Departmental processes or procedures.
  • A request is considered to be received during regular business hours (between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.) on a regular business day (Monday through Thursday, excluding holidays).


What is the California Public Records Act?
The Public Records Act (Government Code Section 6250 et. al.) is designed to give the public access to records in the possession of public agencies.  The Records Division has been charged with the receipt of these requests in order to provide a central location for submittal, collection and retrieval of records maintained by the City.
