To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Alaska Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
1. the total number of use of force incidents reported by the police department, separated by year and by type of force used from 2013-2020 (for example, "27 taser incidents in 2019, 3 baton incidents in 2020, etc.)
2. the total number of civilian complaints alleging any form of law enforcement misconduct that were reported and the total number sustained from 2013-2020, separated by year (for example, 8 complaints in 2016, 2 complaints sustained in 2016, 4 complaints in 2017, 1 complaint sustained in 2017, etc.)
3. the total number of civilian complaints alleging law enforcement use of excessive force that were reported and the total number sustained from 2013-2020, separated by year.
4. the total number of civilian complaints alleging biased policing or racial profiling that were reported and the total number sustained from 2013-2020, separated by year.
5. the total number of civilian complaints alleging criminal conduct that were reported and the total number sustained from 2013-2020, separated by year.
6. all information reported to the FBI’s National Use-of-Force Data Collection program to date.
7. a list of all officer involved shootings that were directed at a person from 2013-20 (excluding shootings of animals and accidental discharges that are not directed at a person).
8. the total amount of money paid out in lawsuits and settlements relating to allegations of police misconduct per year from 2013-20. This includes copies of all reports, lists, databases, or individual documents that detail lawsuits brought against the city's police department and the outcome of lawsuits brought against the city's police department including any financial settlement occurring from 2013-20. It should also include any documents that your department submits to local, state, or federal agencies listing the number and/or status of lawsuits brought against the police department. This request includes any documents compiled quarterly, annually, or in other increments as well as any documents or databases that contain responsive information.
If only partial information is available responsive to one or more of these requests, please provide all of the information that is available.
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 10 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Samuel Sinyangwe

Good afternoon,

If you would like to request records from the City of Fairbanks, please complete the attached form and submit it to cityclerk@fairbanks.us<mailto:cityclerk@fairbanks.us> or to dsnider@fairbanks.us<mailto:dsnider@fairbanks.us>.
Thank you,

Municipal Election Day is Tuesday, October 5, 2021
From: Fairbanks Police Department
Mr. Sinyangwe,
Again, thank you for your public records request received by the City on August 2, 2021.
While the City makes good faith and diligent efforts to provide rapid and intelligible responses to requests for inspection of records made pursuant to the Public Records Request Act and FGC Section 2-773, the City must fill such requests on a timeline compatible with fulfilling the primary mission of the offices involved with fulfilling the request.
Please note that the Alaska Administrative Code provides that the response time to public records requests should be made as soon as practicable, but not later than the 10th working day after the date the agency receives a request for public records (2 AAC 96.325). The Alaska Administrative Code also allows a public agency to extend the basic 10-working-day period for a period not to exceed 10 additional working days by providing notice to the requester within the basic 10-working-day period. The notice must state the reasons for the extension and the date by which the office expects to be able to furnish the requested records or to issue a determination that the records are not disclosable.
The City is, therefore, providing you with notice that it is extending the basic 10-working-day period for an additional 10 days. This extension is not invoked for purposes of delay but because the basic response period comes during a peak workload period caused by COVID-19 and there is a need to consult with legal counsel to ensure that protected interests of private or government persons or entities are not infringed upon. The City expects to be able to furnish the requested records, provide you with a fee estimate for the provision of the non-exempt requested records, or issue a determination that the records are not disclosable by August 30, 2021.
Thank you,
