From: Brandon Smith
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Illinois Freedom of Information Act., I hereby request the following records:
Documentation of any steps whatsoever, including any communications about these steps or their possibility, to change police rules such that CPD requires officers to render aid to someone they have shot with a gun or taser. This request does not concern the pending consent decree being negotiated between the city and the state. Instead, it asks for any efforts other than that, over the date range January 1, 2015 to the date of this request.
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 5 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Brandon Smith

Dear CPD FOIA staff:
In case you weren't aware, I am a journalist, have written about CPD for many publications, and continue to write about CPD for many publications. Please take a look at the full text of the language you cited, and please get back to me with an estimated date of completion.
(g) "Recurrent requester", as used in Section 3.2 of this Act, means a person that, in the 12 months immediately preceding the request, has submitted to the same public body (i) a minimum of 50 requests for records, (ii) a minimum of 15 requests for records within a 30-day period, or (iii) a minimum of 7 requests for records within a 7-day period. For purposes of this definition, requests made by news media and non-profit, scientific, or academic organizations shall not be considered in calculating the number of requests made in the time periods in this definition when the principal purpose of the requests is (i) to access and disseminate information concerning news and current or passing events, (ii) for articles of opinion or features of interest to the public, or (iii) for the purpose of academic, scientific, or public research or education.
Best,
Brandon Smith
