CPRA request:Reports and records of expenditures related to the California Voting Rights Act
Greetings,
This is Daniel Lempres and Jason Fagone,reporters for the San Francisco Chronicle.Pursuant to our rights under the California Public Records Act
(Government Code Section 6250 et seq.),we request the following records related to litigation or the threat thereof under the California Voting Right
Act.
Specifically,this request seeks:
Any and all research reports,city council reports,demographic studies or analyses,meeting minutes or agendas,email communications,and court
filings related to litigation or the threat thereof under the California Voting Rights Act.
Any and all records showing expenditures related to litigation or the threat thereof under the California Voting Right Act.This includes any receipts,
invoices,requests for attorney's fees,and agreements with demographers.
This request reasonably describes identifiable public records or information produced therefrom,and we believe that there exists no express
provision of law exempting such records from disclosure.Accordingly,pursuant to Government Code section 6253(b),we ask that you make the
records"promptly available for inspection."
I would be willing to adjust the parameters of this request in order to aid in its fulfillment,and so as not to unduly burden your office. In that spirit,I
would also like to request a conversation with a subject matter expert who can help me better understand how relevant records are distributed and
stored. I believe such a conversation is required by the California Public Records Act,section 6253.1(a)of which states that agencies"shall'assist
members of the public"make a focused and effective request that reasonably describes an identifiable record or records,shall do all of the following,
to the extent reasonable under the circumstances:(1)Assist the member of the public to identify records and information that are responsive to the
request or to the purpose of the request,if stated.(2)Describe the information technology and physical location in which the records exist.(3)
Provide suggestions for overcoming any practical basis for denying access to the records or information sought."
If there are any fees for searching or copying these records,please inform us if the cost will exceed$50.However,we would also like to request a
waiver of all fees in that the disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest.
The California Public Records Act requires a response within ten business days.If access to the records we are requesting will take longer,please
contact me with information about when we might expect the requested records.
Please release records on a rolling basis. If you deny any or all of this request,please cite each specific exemption you feel justifies the refusal to
release the information detailed in each bullet point and notify me of the appeal procedures available to me under the law.Additionally,can you
please segregate the portion you have denied and released the portions approved?
If you have any questions,Daniel Lempres can be reached at(650)665-0204 and Jason Fagone can be reached at(215)356-9702.Our email
addresses:Daniel.Lempres@sfchronicle.com and jason.fagone@sfchronicle.com.
Thank you for your timely attention to this request.
Sincerely,
Daniel Lempres and Jason Fagone
