Mrs Wheeler,
I appreciate the timely response however the requested information was available when I spoke to the n Commonwealth attorney, Chris Russell, on 12/6/18. After our conversation a foia request was sent to Mr Russell however the request was not fulfilled nor was the request acknowledged. A second request was also sent to the CA with the same result. The current foia request was sent to you based on the recent change of foia Officer information on the city page. Prior to the city’s website update the CA was listed as the foia Officer.
Should I send this request to the new Commonwealth attorney , Josh Elrod. I will also follow up with a request to VSP to ensure the request is received by the correct office.
I appreciate your time and assistance with this request this request!
Thank you!
Tracey
