Public Records Request
The City Clerk's Office maintains all official public records in compliance with local, state and federal regulations. Records we maintain include ordinances and resolutions, agreements, meeting minutes, campaign disclosures and statements of economic interest.
What is a Public Record?
A public record is any record retained by a government body as further defined by statute and open to inspection. Public records include any writing containing information relating to the conduct of the public's business prepared, owned, used or retained by any local or state agency, regardless of physical form or characteristics.
Public Records Request Form
Our goal is to provide you with timely access to the City’s public records. All requests for documents will be reviewed and responded to within ten (10) days, in compliance with the California Public Records Act. Fees are charged according to our fee schedule, however, there is no charge to review records in person at City Hall.
If you are unable to locate the records you want online, please submit a Public Records Request Form to get the process started.
