Good morning,
Please be advised that our records show a balance of $407.89 for charges in connection with your previous Freedom of Information request, which was billed on 4/18/2022 and remains unpaid.
Since more than 30 days have elapsed since billing, in accordance with Section 2.2-3704 (I) of the Code of Virginia (Freedom of Information Act), we will require payment of this outstanding balance before we will be able to process your current request.
