Hello,
This request is ambiguous or overly broad such that the City of Akron cannot reasonably identify what public records are being requested. See Ohio Revised Code §149.43(B)(2) and State ex rel. Dillery v. Icsman (2001), 92 Ohio St.3d 312. Records must be identified with reasonable clarity. State ex rel. Glasgow v. Jones, 119 Ohio St.3d 391, 2008-Ohio-4788. Further, Ohio's Public Records Act does not require the complete duplication of voluminous files. State ex rel. Warren Newspapers, Inc. v. Hutson, 70 Ohio St.3d 619, 624, 640 N.E.2d 174 (1994). If you are looking for a specific incident report or 911 audio please provide the incident number. If you are looking for email correspondence please provide the name and or emails addresses of the individuals whose correspondence you seek.
Thanks
