Mr. Willis,
Could you please provide the exemptions you are citing in withholding contractual documents? The following link is to a letter sent by the City of Gilbert to the ACLU and states the Gilbert PD purchased cellphone surveillance equipment in 2008. https://www.aclu.org/files/assets/town_of_gilberts_response_to_prr_re_cell_phone_location_records.pdf
Thank you.
Best,
