Dear Micah Moody :

This letter is in response to your request for public information, which the City of Fort Worth (the “City”) received on 3/6/2023 8:23:42 PM.

Information Requested: “To Whom It May Concern: Pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act, I hereby request the following records: Emails with representatives of the Yale Justice Collaboratory from 2020 to present. Specifically, I request emails sent to or received from an email address with the domain "@yale.edu" that were sent between 01/01/2020 and 03/05/2023. 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.

​The City is committed to providing you with the information you are seeking. However, in order to locate the records responsive to your request, the City of Fort Worth Police Department would need to search the files and e-mail accounts of over 2,300 Police Department employees. Because of the broad scope of the request, there would likely be a very substantial fee associated with locating, compiling, and providing the requested information to you, as authorized by the Texas Public Information Act. Therefore, rather than just sending you a very high cost estimate for the information you have requested, we would like to see if you might be interested in narrowing the scope of your request in order to decrease or potentially eliminate any costs to you while also ensuring that you receive the specific information you would like from the City.

​For example, you could narrow your request to include only certain specific officers and employees of the City, either by name or by title, whose files you would like the City to search for responsive records. You could also specify specific keyword search terms and narrow the timeframe as well. I offer these ideas only as examples of ways that you could limit the scope of your request in order to make things more expedient for you. There certainly may be other approaches that you could take to limit that scope.

Please be advised that if the City does not receive a written response from you by the 61st day after the date this letter is sent to you, your request for public information is considered to have been withdrawn by you.

You may send your response using one of the following methods or by simply replying to this email directly:

* Open Records Portal: https://www.fortworthtexas.gov/departments/citysecretary/records
* Mail or in person at: Officer for Public Information OR Public Information Administrator, 200 Texas Street, Suite 3614, Fort Worth, Texas 76102

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding this matter. The City looks forward to working with you to provide you with the information you are seeking.

Sincerely,

Annette Henderson
