I want to apologize for not contacting you earlier.  There was an issue with the reply email and I didn't realize that you had replied to my clarification request.  I've sent your clarification to our law department so they can complete the search.  I'm not sure what her schedule is so I am extending the request to July 21 just in case.  As soon as she is done I will let you know.  Please let me know if you have any questions, I've included my phone number below if that is easier.
Sincerely, Karen Grossnickle
Public Records Coordinator
