Pursuant to the Georgia Open Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

ShotSpotter representatives can be identified by searching the department's email system for addresses ending in "@shotspotter.com."

ShotSpotter representatives can be identified by searching the department's email system for addresses ending in "@shotspotter.com."
I ask that all fees be waived as I intend to use the requested records to further public understanding of government functions and not for any commercial purpose.
In the event that you choose to withhold or redact the records, I ask that you provide a detailed explanation of the statutory and/or case law upon which each rejection or redaction is based.
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 3 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,

Good morning,
I have your request and will get started today. I will have to contact our vendor and ask for a hit count for emails in order to determine how many records are available. This usually takes a few days and I should have some estimate by Monday.

Good morning,
Our vendor did an email search for the items you inquired about. The search found 436 items. We can process around 20 emails per hour – not including attachments. That will require 7.26 hours of labor. The first 15 minutes are free equaling 7.01 hours. Our rate for labor is $23.31 per hour. The starting estimate is 7.07 x $23.32 = 164.80. If there are attachments that must also be processed the cost may go up. Please let me know how you would like to proceed and I can ask for the emails to be pulled.

Hello,
Thank you very much. Please proceed with the email pull and let me know where to send the check for $164.80.
Todd
From: Atlanta Police Department
Will do. Please do not send a check yet. It may be more or less depending on actual time needed – the 164 is just an estimate.
Once I get the email pull I can get started with a firmer estimate when I see how many attachments there are etc. When it is complete I’ll include an invoice with the link to the files.
I will send the request for the email pull today.

Good morning,
The hit count for emails etc on this request was 129. That would be around 6.45 hours. With the first 15 minutes free that would be approx. $144.00. I will have our vendor pull the documents. It should take about a week to complete.
