Bullhead City asked which office holds the request and when records might come.

Summary posted:

A reply in the September 10 request thread went to the City’s public records address, with the Police Department’s records address copied. It notes that the only response so far is the Police Records automatic acknowledgment of September 10 and asks three things: which office is handling the request and any reference number; whether the City Clerk’s office also has it, since part of it covers contracts and payments; and a rough date for the first records or for a cost estimate. It suggests starting with the current contract and the camera inventory, says the rest can follow in batches, invites a one-line answer if the City has no plate readers and no access to anyone else’s, and offers to narrow the request.

Wording from the message

“If the City has no plate readers and no access to anyone else's, one line saying so would answer most of this.”

What this establishes

Sending is verified; receipt is unconfirmed. Arizona’s public records law asks custodians to furnish records promptly and sets no fixed day count; the message cites that and sets no deadline. Silence so far is not a refusal, and the automatic acknowledgment does not show which office is handling the request.

What happens next

Await a reply naming the handling office, a reference number or a date.
