I have requested emails and contracts between persons in the Office of the Mayor, and certain listed parties, between certain dates. How else would you describe such records?

You are required under Govt Code 6253.1 to do the following:
(a) When a member of the public requests to inspect a public record or obtain a copy of a public record, the public agency, in order to assist the member of the public make a focused and effective request that reasonably describes an identifiable record or records, shall do all of the following, to the extent reasonable under the circumstances:
(1) Assist the member of the public to identify records and information that are responsive to the request or to the purpose of the request, if stated.
(2) Describe the information technology and physical location in which the records exist.
(3) Provide suggestions for overcoming any practical basis for denying access to the records or information sought.

In order to preserve my anonymity, and to have a written record, I would prefer to do so over email. What are the office's objections?

Thank you.

It has been over 2 weeks since requesting the Mayor's objections and I have received no response.
You appear to be in violation of the CPRA. Please respond as soon as possible.

You have no right to refuse PRA requests over e-mail. I don't want to discuss over the phone.
