Good morning Mr. Auburn,

I’m seeking clarification on your FOIA request.

To confirm, you are looking for text messages, phone call records, emails, social media direct messages by and between the Mayor and Trustees regarding the shooting of Madeline Miller between July 9 and July 21, 2022. Is this correct?

Thank you,
