Record request #24-173 has been closed. The closure reason supplied was:
Dear Ms. Ludt,
As we noted in your previous request, the records you are requesting are housed within the Department of Public Safety as they hold the contract authorized in Ordinance 1244-2024. As the City Clerk for the City of Columbus, I maintain all public records of the City Clerk’s office and coordinate public records requests on behalf of Members of City Council for records that are maintained within their offices. I am not the custodian of records maintained by the Department of Public Safety.
To the best of my knowledge, the public records officer for Public Safety is Glenn McEntyre. The public records officer should be able to obtain the information you are requesting. Please contact GAMcEntyre@columbus.gov for further assistance.
Sent on behalf of Columbus City Clerk, Andrea Blevins
