Good Morning Jenny,

I am reviewing your public records request in regards to the Nuisance Property Abatement Ordinance. I would like to clarify which records you are trying to obtain. Are you looking for police records only or police records and emails associated with the ordinance? If you are looking for emails, do you want any email in regards to the ordinance or are you looking for something specific? Please be specific on which documents you are hoping to obtain. Thank you!

From: Jenny Wadhwa

Hello,
I am looking for enforcement actions, specifically police reports as referenced 4-2-1 and 4-2-2 of Chapter 2 in the Nuisance Property Abatement chapter of the Boise city code maintained for the purpose of enforcing the nuisance property abatement code. Ideally, I would like records for the past calendar year but, if that is overly burdensome, I would accept for the past five months.

Kindly,
Jenny
