I have also completed your “Government Records Request Form” and it is attached.
If there are any copying or other fees for this, please let me know what they are and how they are calculated, before fulfilling the request and forwarding the Records to me.

I am also asking that all Records be provided to me electronically to the full extent possible, so as to obviate the need for any photocopying expense.
I will appreciate a response from you and your office as soon as possible. I look forward to hearing from you shortly. In the event that any portion of my request is denied, please inform me of each of the specific reasons for any such denial in writing - and provide me with the name, address, and other contact information of the person or entity to whom an appeal should be directed.
