To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to Pennsylvania Right to Know Act, I hereby request the following records:
A Shapefile or CSV containing at minimum the Address Points (house # and street name) and their corresponding Latitude/Longitude. If additional data such as the Unit Number, City, Zipcode, Parcel Id exists they should be included as well.
If this cannot be accessed, the parcel file including situs address would suffice.
Other names for this include: E911 Address Database, Civic Address File, Parcel Dataset, Land Ownership Dataset, Tax Parcels, Address Points.
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. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Nick Ingalls

Hello!
Good to hear from you! I should have clarified earlier - I intend to publish these records into the public domain via our publication project openaddresses.io.
As such could you adjust the quote for me per Pennsylvania's new Right to Know Law Act 3 of 2008 Ch 13 Sec. 1307 Fee Limitations 4ii to include only the cost of duplication. In addition if the fee is over $50 could you provide a breakdown of how the fee will be spent on duplication.
Cheers,
Nick
