Dear Annette Morasch:

The City of Culver City ("City") is in receipt of your request for records under the California Public Records Act, California Government Code section 6250 et seq. Please be advised, the City of Culver City is operating under a Local Emergency, due to the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19). City staff is engaged in focusing on crisis management and emergency response, and the majority of City employees are working remotely. As a result, access to many City files and documents may be limited. In addition, there is a concern that responding to lengthy and complicated requests on non-emergency matters may take away valuable staff time from the essential and necessary emergency work.

Culver City values its record of transparency and timely responsiveness to the public. We are asking for your patience at this time, as the City finds it necessary to and is extending the initial 10-day response deadline, or any previously issued extension, by an additional 14 days. In this regard, the City will respond to your request on or before August 27, 2020.

If your request is routine and does not require considerable review and analysis of documents, staff will respond as quickly as possible under the circumstances, if the document is accessible. If your request involves detailed review of documents or emails, or if exempt information will need to be redacted, we ask that you are patient with staff in getting the information to you when time allows. We will keep you apprised of the status of your request.

Sincerely,

City Clerk's Office
City of Culver City
