Hello Mr. Arstad,
Please note - the Auburn School Board Policy 4040P is labeled as being "adopted" on 05-21-2020 or 43 days AFTER your receipt of this public records request. The Auburn School District policy in effect on the date of this Public Records Act request (03-09-2020) was ASD Policy 4040P dated 02-09-16 (attached). This District policy in effect on 03-09-2020 does not contain any Public Records Act document fee schedule nor does the policy contain any rules or regulations declaring the reason the District need not calculate the actual costs it charges for providing public records because doing so would be unduly burdensome (RCW 42.56.120 - attached).
Per RCW 42.56.120(f) Please provide a summary of applicable charges in association with this request. I would estimate 700,000 email records to require no more than 32GB of data which can easily and cost effectively be exported to a 32gb or 64gb USB "flash drive." Export of data from District computers to USB flash drives is common and the most reasonable and cost-efficient method available to the District as part of its normal operations. The cost of a 64gb USB flash drive is under $10.00 USD (attached). I would be happy to supply the district with USB flash drives to accommodate this Public Records Act request. Thank you.

Re: Subject: Washington Public Records Act Request: Auburn School District – (9) Email Accounts - 2014 to 2020
Your email dated November 25, 2020 has been reviewed. Your email contained no installment of records or partial records. As of this date (December 3, 2020) 269 days have elapsed and the District has produced no records or installments of any kind responsive to this public records request.
This Public Records Request [RCW 42.56] was originally made on March 09, 2020.
As an agency [RCW 42.56.010] the District has a responsibility to provide a reasonable estimate of time needed to respond to this public records request.
“…An estimate can be revised when appropriate, but unwarranted serial extensions have the effect of denying a requestor access to public records” [WAC 44-14-04003(7)].
After receiving this original public records request on March 9, 2020, the next day on March, 10, 2020 (1 day later) you stated via email:
“the District estimates that it may be able to provide you with documents responsive to your request within forty-five (45) business days from the above date to determine the need to clarify the intent of the request, to locate and assemble the information requested, to notify third persons or agencies affected by the request, and/or to determine whether any of the information contained in such documents is exempt from public disclosure.”
On May 27, 2020 I sent the District an email inquiring about the status of this public records request.
On May 28, 2020 you responded via email stating “You can expect an installment or update on or before September 15, 2020.”
Your May 28, 2020 email contained no installment of records.
On June 12, 2020 I sent the District an email inquiring about the status of this public records request.
I received no response from you or the District to my June 12, 2020 email.
On June 29, 2020 I sent the District an email inquiring about the status of this public records request.
I received no response from you or the District to my June 29, 2020 email.
On July 13, 2020 you sent an email stating “The estimated number of records will exceed 700,000 documents. According to our board policy 4040P [LINK], the fee that will need to be collected will exceed $9000. Please reply with your intent to continue to request these records, or modify this request.”
On July 21, 2020 I replied to your email stating “Please note - the Auburn School Board Policy 4040P is labeled as being "adopted" on 05-21-2020 or 43 days AFTER your receipt of this public records request.

Per RCW 42.56.120(f) Please provide a summary of applicable charges in association with this request. I would estimate 700,000 email records to require no more than 32GB of data which can easily and cost effectively be exported to a 32gb or 64gb USB "flash drive."

Your November 25, 2020 email contained no installment of records.
Mr. Aarstad, you emailed on March 10, 2020 “the District estimates that it may be able to provide you with documents responsive to your request within forty-five (45) business days…” however no documents were ever provided.
You emailed on July, 13, 2020 “…the fee that will need to be collected will exceed $9000. Please reply with your intent to continue to request these records, or modify this request.” However then on September 11, 2020 you reversed this decision and stated that the first installment of documents would be provided free of charge within 30 business days of September 11, 2020:
“… we will process the public records request without a charge. Due to the scope and size of your request, we will provide you with installments. You can expect an update or installment within thirty (30) business days from today, September 11, 2020.”
More than 30 business days have elapsed since September 11, 2020 yet no first installment of records were produced. As of today eighty-three (83) days have elapsed since September 11, 2020 however still no documents or installments have been produced by the District.
As of today, December 3, 2020 - 269 days have elapsed from the time of the original public records request without the District providing a single record or a reasonable estimate of time it will take to produce a first installment of records.
According to your latest November 25, 2020 email, the District will provide another “update” within 60 business days, however presumably the District with not provide the first installment of records?
If this is correct, three hundred and thirty-three (333) days will have elapsed from the time of the original public records request without a single responsive record or installment of records produced by the District.
Why has the first installment of records not been produced?
Respectfully, I request per [WAC 44-14-04003 (3)] the District provide this requestor "fullest assistance" and "most timely possible action." Please begin providing responsive records requested across each of the (9) email accounts in REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER in INSTALLMENTS as soon as possible.
Thank you.

Good afternoon,
This email is in response to your public records request dated March 9, 2020.
You requested the information below:
I request an electronic copy of the following (9) email accounts for the years 2014-2020 to be produced in Microsoft Personal Storage Table (.pst) format:

9. dleighton@auburn.wednet.edu<mailto:dleighton@auburn.wednet.edu>
On June 22, 2021, we sent you the first installment. I have a second installment ready to send, however, I have reviewed your file and original request, specifically, this statement:
In the event the District chooses to provide the records in installments over time I request the records to be produced in reverse chronological order - from the latest to the earliest.
It looks like the first installment that was sent to you included emails from 2016. This second installment is also from 2016. Per your original request, would you like me to provide you the next installments starting with the 2020 or continue on with 2016?
I apologize for this inconvenience but want to be responsive to your request. This is a very large request, and it will take a significant amount of time to reach the 2020 chronological order if we continue with the current installments.
Please reply to this email by September 29, 2019, to direct me on the date range for the next installment. The district cannot move forward with your request until we hear back from you.
If you have questions or concerns, feel free to call me at (253) 931-4900.
Sincerely,
Lisa Connors

On September 15, 2021, I asked you for clarification on your installments, asking to let me know if you want the 2nd installment for 2016 or change the date range that I provide to you. I asked that you reply by today, September 29, 2021. We have not heard from you.
My email on September 29, 2021, asked you to let me know if you wanted the 2nd installment as is or with a new date range. I asked that you reply to today, October 27, 2021. We have not heard from you.
**We have not received a response from you. Therefore, we assume you no longer want the requested records.
With this email, the district considers your request abandoned and this request is now closed.
If you have questions or concerns, feel free to call me at (253) 931-4900.
