To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Nevada Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
This request should be directed to the Carson City Sheriff's Office, as well as the Carson City Building Division. I am seeking the following as they pertain to the above agencies:
- A record of public records requests submitted to each agency that lists the date of request, the requester's name, the requester's organizational affiliation, a description of the request and the city's response for the years 2016, 2017 and 2018.
- Records of policies/procedures related to processing and approval/denial processes for public records requests used in the years 2016, 2017 and 2018. We are interested in obtaining the policies for each agency, if they have their own policies, as well as the city’s policy.
- Records of total direct revenue and expenses (i.e., no including overhead) relating to the processing of public records requests in 2016, 2017 and 2018.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
James Scripps

Good afternoon James,
I forwarded your request to the appropriate entities, and we are working on a response. Unfortunately the Civil Division Manager, Wendy Talavera, is no longer with the Carson City Sheriff's Office & that is who I gave your original request to. I will get you the requested information as soon as possible. Please feel free to call me at 775-887-2500 if you have any questions or concerns. I hope you're having a fabulous morning!
Thank you,
Erika :)
