PRIOR DESTRUCTION OF RECORDS

If any potentially relevant records have been destroyed, please provide copies of the destruction or transfer slips as well as any other documentation pertaining to, mentioning, or describing said transfer or destruction, including, but not limited to, a statement that your agency has no additional copies of the records in question.

NO PARTICULAR FORM RCW 42.56.080 (2)

Public records shall be available for inspection and copying, and agencies shall, upon request for identifiable public records, make them promptly available to any person including, if applicable, on a partial or installment basis as records that are part of a larger set of requested records are assembled or made ready for inspection or disclosure. Agencies shall not deny a request for identifiable public records
solely on the basis that the request is overbroad. Agencies shall not distinguish among persons requesting records, and such persons shall not be required to provide information as to the purpose for the request except to establish whether inspection and copying would violate RCW 42.56.070(8) or 42.56.240(14), or other statute which exempts or prohibits disclosure of specific information or records to certain persons. Agency facilities shall be made available to any person for the copying of public records except when and to the extent that this would unreasonably disrupt the operations of the agency. Agencies shall honor requests received in person during an agency's normal office hours, or by mail or email, for identifiable public records unless exempted by provisions of this chapter. No official format is required for making a records request.

This request is not commercial in nature and does not seek a list of any kind in any or in any form.

This request is not for profit.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.

Thank you.

NOTE: RCW 42.56.080(2) provides that "Agencies shall not distinguish among persons requesting records, and such persons shall not be required to provide information as to the purpose for the request..."

Although not LEGALLY REQUIRED, all parties can thank serial pathological liar KELLI LYNN HAMILTON (ADDRESS: 16907 SE 354th PLACE, AUBURN, WASHINGTON 98092 - PHONE 650-302-9530 - EMAIL: hamiltk6@gene.com) for her criminal false reporting (RCW 9A.84.040) coupled with the highly offensive email and letter dated 8-26-22 (RCW 9A.56.130) sent by attorney MR. BENJAMIN BYERS OF CORR CRONIN LLP (ADDRESS: 1001 FORTH AVE. SUITE 3900, SEATTLE, WASHINGTON 98154 - PHONE: 206-625-8600 - EMAIL: bbyers@corrcronin.com) as the origin for this COMPLETLY LEGAL AND PROPER PUBLIC RECORDS REQUEST under RCW 42.56.

Should any party subject to this Public Records Act request object to the disclosure of non-exempt responsive agency records under RCW 42.56, the Washington State Public Records act provides a clear legal path for relief:

“RCW 42.56.660(1)(b) Agency employee records. Upon notice provided in accordance with (a) of this subsection, the agency employee may bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin the agency from disclosing the records.

RCW 42.56.660(3)(a) A court of competent jurisdiction, following sufficient notice to the employing agency, may order the release of some or all of the records described in subsections (1) and (2) of this section after finding that, in consideration of the totality of the circumstances, disclosure would not violate the right to privacy under RCW 42.56.050 for the agency employee.”

From: King County Directors' Association

Thank you, this undated "policy" document looks new.

In the future, you can confirm any installment submission to MUCKROCK.COM is successfully downloaded by checking this link:

https://www.muckrock.com/foi/king-county-73/riesa-michelle-ragan-issaquah-wa-king-county-directors-association-request-for-public-records-october-11-2022-135024/

additional confirmation after successful downloading and archiving is not required.

Regards.

From: King County Directors' Association

Hello, per RCW 42.56.120(4) “If an installment of a records request is not claimed or reviewed, the agency is not obligated to fulfill the balance of the request.” Unfortunately, there is no way to verify through the Muckrock platform that a record had been claimed or reviewed unless a response is sent to the installment delivery message.

I cannot “confirm any installment submission to MUCKROCK.COM is successfully downloaded by checking this link: https://www.muckrock.com/foi/king-county-73/riesa-michelle-ragan-issaquah-wa-king-county-directors-association-request-for-public-records-october-11-2022-135024/”. Your assertion that “additional confirmation after successful downloading and archiving is not required” is false.

You have successful received and confirmed receipt of 11 installment thus far. Please continue to confirm receipt after each installment is delivered. Per our local policy, installments not claimed in 30 days are deem abandoned and we are no longer obligated to fulfill the request.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Kindest regards,

Attention Requester,

No reply was received for this 16th installment of records which was sent to you on 02/13/2023. Because the Muckrock platform has been less than reliable, I will allow an additional 30 days to confirm you have accessed this installment before deeming the request abandoned. No further installments will be delivered until receipt of the previous installment has been confirmed.

PRESERVATION OF PUBLIC RECORDS *** ANTICIPATE LITAGATION ***

WAC 44-14-03005 RETENTION OF PUBLIC RECORDS

The lawful destruction of public records is governed by retention schedules. The unlawful destruction of public records can be a crime. RCW 40.16.010 and 40.16.020. An agency is prohibited from destroying a public record, even if it is about to be lawfully destroyed under a retention schedule, if a public records request has been made for that record. RCW 42.56.100. Additional retention requirements might apply if the records may be relevant to actual or anticipated litigation. The agency is required to retain the record until the record request has been resolved.

Note: An agency can be found to violate the Public Records Act and be subject to the attorneys' fees and penalty provision if it prematurely destroys a requested record after a request is made. See Yacobellis v. City of Bellingham, 55 Wn. App. 706, 780 P.2d 272 (1989). However, it is not a violation of the Public Records Act if a record is destroyed prior to an agency's receipt of a public records request for that record. Bldg. Indus. Ass'n of Wash. v. McCarthy, 152 Wn. App. 720, 218 P.3d 196 (2009); West v. Dep't of
Nat. Res., 163 Wn. App. 238, 258 P.3d 78 (2011). The Public Records Act (chapter 42.56 RCW) and the records retention statutes (chapter 40.14 RCW) are two different laws.
