Hi Shawn,
Last time you inquired about our access to public records procedure, I sent you a link. Our form is online at cityofnewport.com. You take a chance by emailing an individual for a request as I happen to be on vacation. So it would be more appropriate to follow the procedure. I am copying my assistant so your request will be fulfilled in a timely manner.
Thanks,
Lt Dvorak
