Good Morning -
Records of the Denver Police Department are criminal justice records, the disclosure of which is governed by the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act (CCJRA), sections 24-72-301, et. seq. C.R.S. Except for records of "official actions," the disclosure of criminal justice records is discretionary and can be denied where the custodian believes disclosure would be contrary to the public interest. Section 24-72-305(5), C.R.S.

Pursuant to Harris v. Denver Post, 123 P.3d 116 (Colo. 2005), the following factors are used to determine whether a record should be released or withheld:
(a) the privacy interests of individuals, if any, who may be impacted by a decision to allow disclosure of the record;
(b) the agency's interest in keeping confidential information confidential;
(c) the agency's interest in the integrity of on-going investigations;
(d) the public purpose to be served in allowing disclosure of the record; and
(e) any other pertinent considerations relevant to the circumstances of the particular records request,
including whether disclosure would be contrary to the public interest.

The records you are seeking are not records of official action and therefore their disclosure is discretionary, subject to a balancing of the factors above. Employees of law enforcement agencies both civilian and sworn hold sensitive positions by the very nature of their employment. The staffing information specific to an employee's personal time off, vacation days, personal days and furlough days contain law enforcement sensitive details that could compromise officer safety and the Department's ability to address public safety situations necessitating the deployment of officers. We believe that those interests outweigh any public purpose to be served by release of the records. Your request is denied because we believe that it would be contrary to the public interest to release details of deployment tactics. CRS 24-72-305(5).

Thank you,
Andrea Webber | Records Administrator
