Records Retention Schedule and Records Guide

Dear Greg Buhl: Pursuant to California Government Code § 6253, staff will review your request and respond within 10 days to notify you if there are responsive records, or if an extension is necessary to determine if responsive records exist.

If your request was received after business hours or on a weekend or holiday, the next business day will be considered the date of receipt. The 10-day response period starts with the first calendar day after the date of receipt (Ca. Civ. Code, § 10.). You may be contacted by a staff member if there are questions regarding your request. We do not release police reports through the Public Records Act (PRA) request process. The involved party of the report, or the representative of the party (lawyer, insurance, etc.) may obtain a copy of the report from our Records Division. The Records Division report request helpline is (562) 570-7381.
Thank you for your interest in public records of the Long Beach Police Department. Your request has been received and will be processed in the order it was received. Your request was received in this office on 8/22/2021 and given the reference number P007278-082221 for tracking purposes.

Records Requested: "To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

-Any and all materials, indices, directives, manuals, and other guiding documentation regarding the records generated and retained by this agency, including but not limited to any and all applicable:

• Record retention schedules

• Indices to the records management program

• Any other data structures used for the management of records: digital, paper, and otherwise

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

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within the timeframe set out by the CPRA.

*A duplicate of the request has been sent to the City Manager for the city version of these documents. I am assuming LBPD has separate practices due to its role in criminal justice.

**This request overlaps with a previous request I filed over email retention policy, but this request is broader and asking for different documents.

***The LAPD recently responded to a similar request, their response can be found here. https://www.muckrock.com/foi/los-angeles-91/records-retention-schedule-and-records-guide-los-angeles-police-department-79253/#files
