2023 County Contracts Data

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the New York Freedom of Information Law, I hereby request the following records:

The database of Suffolk County contracts for the calendar year of 2023, in a machine-readable database or spreadsheet format such as Excel, CSV, Access, SQL or JSON. This database has been provided on Suffolk County's open data portal, but only until the year 2018 (https://opendata.suffolkcountyny.gov/search?collection=dataset&q=County%20Contracts%202018) .

The data should include all fields in the database or spreadsheets that contain non-exempt information, including but not limited to all fields in the example provided by the Suffolk County Open Data Portal for previous years (https://opendata.suffolkcountyny.gov/datasets/51f3b862baaf40b68028c46da23e7874_0/explore). I also request all documentation that describes the layout of the database’s tables and fields, and that provides the definitions of any field names, codes, and abbreviations used in the database. This information may be gathered together in a single document like a data dictionary, entity layout, or user's guide. If that is the case, I request access to and copy of said document.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Dillon Bergin
