A comprehensive search of my department has resulted in some records pertaining to you request. There are some points in your request that we would like clarification on before proceeding.
First, a search of records in our department were unable to find any information regarding "Host Compliance" as a software. Did you have any additional information on how this software was being used by the Information Technology Department?
Second, the Granicus records that we were able to collection are in regard to these 3 properties: GovQA, Legistar, and GovDelivery. Is there one of those software's that you were specifically interested in?
Finally, in your request you state, " Please try to include any other miscellaneous documents that facilitate this police department's relationship with Banjo that don't neatly fall neatly into the above categories." I would just like to clarify that I can only conduct a search for records within my department. If the records you're requesting are managed by a different department I can transfer this request to the correct department.
If we do not hear from you within 5 days, we will proceed to invoice for the records that we have collected regard the Granicus software and assume there is no specific one form the 3 provided that you are looking for.
Sincerely,
Information Technology Department
