Public Records Requests
The City Manager designated the City Clerk as the City’s Public Records Officer pursuant to the Washington State Public Records Act (PRA) Chapter 42.56 RCW.
The public records officer oversees compliance with the PRA; however, other City staff members may process a request. When the public records officer or designee receive a public records request, they will:
- Provide the fullest assistance possible to requesters;
- Ensure that public records are protected from damage or disorganization; and
- Respond promptly to all public records requests per RCW 42.56.520.
GENERAL RECORDS (including Animal Control Records)
Requests may be completed using the online public records request portal powered by GovQA.
Note: For a better experience submitting a request and obtaining records using the GovQA portal, use Google Chrome or Firefox browsers if you are having difficulties with Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge or any other web browser.
