Below are new Immediate Disclosure Requests (SF Admin Code 67.25(a)) directed to your agency and its department head. Your response is required by Feb 13, 2020.

Your non-exhaustive obligations:
- All withholding of any information must be justified in writing (SFAC 67.27).

- Do not impose any end-user restrictions upon me (Santa Clara Co. vs Superior Ct, 170 Cal.App 4th 1301); so if you use a third-party website to publish records, please make them completely public without any login or sign-in.
Your agency must do all of the above things in your response, and you cannot wait until we file complaints.
****** We have no duty to, and we will not again, remind the City of its obligations. Instead, we will file complaints for every Sunshine Ordinance or CPRA violation.

Dear Anonymous,
You have submitted a public records request for...
All text or chat messages in any form or application (SMS, MMS, WhatsApp, WeChat, Signal, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Hangouts, Skype, Teams) sent by Chief Scott to Mayor Breed OR sent by Mayor Breed to Chief Scott, timestamps between June 1, 2019 and Aug 30, 2019 (inclusive), including a personal search under City of San Jose vs Superior Court (2017). Please also include any group messages where more than Chief Scott and Breed are on the message.
as an immediate disclosure request ("IDR"). The purpose of an IDR is for "simple, routine, or otherwise readily answerable request." Admin. Code 67.25(a). The Sunshine Ordinance does not bestow on requesters the right to transform any or every public records request into an immediate disclosure request simply by so designating it. Rather, the Sunshine Ordinance specifies that for more extensive or demanding requests, the maximum deadlines under the Public Records Act and the Sunshine Ordinance for responding to a request apply. Admin. Code § 67.25(a). As your request does not fit the criteria for an IDR, we will treat your request as a regular public records request and we will respond within the time limits specified in the applicable statutes.

Exact copies of every responsive record are requested (Gov Code 6253(b)) - do not: provide mere URLs, print and scan electronic records, convert native files to PDFs, or provide black and white versions of any color record. Provide only copies of records not requiring fees and in-person inspection of all other records (GC 6253).
Your non-exhaustive obligations:
-All withholding of any information must be justified in writing (SFAC 67.27).
-All withholdings by masking or deletion (aka redactions) must be keyed by footnote or other clear reference to the specific justification for that redaction, and only the minimal exempt portion of any record may be withheld (SFAC 67.26).
-You must respond to emailed requests (SFAC 67.21(b)).
-You must notify us of whether or not responsive records exist and/or were withheld for each below request (Gov Code 6253(c), 6255(b)).
- You must state the name and title of each person responsible for withholding any information (Gov Code 6253(d)).
-Do not impose any end-user restrictions upon me (Santa Clara Co. vs Superior Ct, 170 Cal.App 4th 1301); so if you use a third-party website to publish records, please make them completely public without any login or sign-in.
Your agency must do all of the above things in your response, and you cannot wait until we file complaints.
****** We have no duty to, and we will not again, remind the City of its obligations. Instead, we will file complaints for every Sunshine Ordinance or CPRA violation. We will continue to file complaints until the City's procedures are modified to fully comply with the Sunshine Ordinance and CPRA, without caveat or exception. ******
1. All text or chat messages in any form or application (SMS, MMS, WhatsApp, WeChat, Signal, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Hangouts, Skype, Teams) sent by Chief Scott to Mayor Breed OR sent by Mayor Breed to Chief Scott, timestamps between Jan 1, 2020 and Apr 1, 2020 (inclusive), including a personal search under City of San Jose vs Superior Court (2017). Please also include any group messages where more than Chief Scott and Breed are on the message. While the phone numbers are not needed, the following must be preserved: the timestamps, the textual content, attachments, and images, and also ALL sender and recipient names (including groups). Pursuant to SF Admin Code 67.21(l), please provide a spreadsheet format or if you will use PDF, do not print and scan. Please provide rolling responses.
Do not destroy or discard any responsive records - we will appeal all withholdings or Sunshine violations.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.
NOTE: Please be certain you have properly redacted all of your responses. Once you send them to us, there is no going back. The email address sending this request is a publicly- viewable mailbox. All of your responses (including all responsive records) may be instantly and automatically available to the public online via the MuckRock.com FOIA service used to issue this request (though the requester is an anonymous user, not a representative of MuckRock).

Sup of Records Herrera,
This is a SFAC 67.21(d) petition against SFPD and Chief Scott for a written determination that records or parts thereof are public and an associated Order to disclose.
I appeal against an April 13 2020 response re texts between Chief Scott and Mayor Breed. Links are included below.
1. There are attachments or other media illegally withheld and without justification at least rows: 1/20/20 5:50, 3/26/20 4:25, 3/29/20 22:40 and 23:53. Note these are just the obvious missing media. All attachments must be provided. Even if the IT Department cannot get them from a central server, they must be provided off Chief Scott’s phone if that is the sole place they are retained.
2. I challenge all redactions on the attached column Body. These are discussions of how the Mayor may or may not have interacted with someone with COVID at her gym.
3. I also challenge the redactions of the Mayor’s own words (an office not listed in GC 6254(f)) as an investigative file, including but not limited to the Body redactions of 2/24/20 4;48 and 4/1/20 18:06.
Sincerely,
—Anonymous

Thanks for your help, and let me know if further clarification is needed.

Dear SOTF Petitioners, Respondents and other Stakeholders:
As you most likely know SOTF operations have been delayed over the last few months due to the Covid-19 emergency. The SOTF have started to conduct remote meetings via videoconference and are working to establish procedures to resume all operations including the processing of complaints.
While the Sunshine Ordinance requires that certain actions be taken within 45 days, the Covid-19 emergency has forced delays and immense new backlogs for complaint hearings. We write today to ask if you are willing to waive the 45 day rule for your complaint.
The SOTF intends to resume hearing complaints on a limited basis and complaints will be queued to be heard in the near future. We continue to work to address technical issues posed by remote meetings. We are aware of the time sensitivity of your records requests. Please be assured that the SOTF appreciates the urgency of your matters and the importance of handling them in a timely manner.
If you have further questions about your files or have other issues, please feel free to email the SOTF Administrator at the email below.

Good Evening,
You replied to a July 5 petition on Oct 23. This is a further 67.21(d) petition on the same subject matter.
On the matter of unknown identities you stated:
""
Failure to Disclose the Identity of All Participants in Communications
Your petition challenges SFPD’s failure to disclose the identities of certain recipients of
responsive messages, and SFPD’s labeling of these unidentified recipients as “unknown.” As
SFPD has indicated the identities of these undisclosed recipients are unknown, we are unable to
make a determination as to whether or not these recipients’ identities were properly withheld.
""
If the identities cannot be known, it does not exempt the phone numbers themselves. Those should be determined in writing to be public and ordered disclosed.
The burden of proof that a part of a record is exempt is on the City agency - so if it is not determinable whether or not a part of a record is exempt, it must be deemed non-exempt. If the phone number is a city-owned number by definition it is not personal and cannot be withheld under privacy exemptions. Furthermore if SFPD cannot show that it is in fact the personal phone number of an individual, it cannot prove any privacy exemption at all. In either case, the number should be disclosed.
Sincerely,
Anonymous
From: San Francisco Police Department
In response to your October 29, 2020, email regarding Request # P011148-022520, we refer to the October 23, 2020, letter we previously provided, attached, and provide the following additional response:
SFPD has properly withheld the responsive cell phone numbers of SFPD employees based on the right of privacy under Article 1, Section 1 of the California Constitution, and under Evidence Code Section 1040(b)(2), as the public interest in withholding these numbers outweighs the public interest in disclosure of the numbers.
