Dear Department of Public Works ,
This is a new Immediate Disclosure Request under the San Francisco Sunshine Ordinance, made before start of business August 22, 2019.
** Please redact your responses correctly! This is a public mailbox, and all of your responses (including emails, attachments, file shares, and the disclosed records) may be automatically and instantly available to the general public on the MuckRock.com service used to issue this request (though I am not a MuckRock representative). Once you send them to us, there's no going back. **
The audio record of the August 7 SOTF meeting appears to reference a "Custodian of Records Working Group" (aka "Custodian Working Group", called the "Group" below) of public employees attempting to, among other things, lobby (in a colloquial sense), via a letter, the SOTF to impose certain suggestions or restrictions on the behavior of the public. Perhaps my impression is incorrect; I would like to know more.
I request under the San Francisco Sunshine Ordinance (Ordinance) and the California Public Records Act (CPRA):
1. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all agendas (draft or final) of meetings of the Group
2. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all minutes (draft or final) of meetings of the Group
3. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all listings of the membership/roster of the Group
4. regular request: all supporting documentation used at meetings of the Group
5. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all records showing any budget allocations or other financial support given to the Group
6. regular request: all records that would demonstrate the public monies being used to support the activities of the Group (including showing the time spent by public employees performing Group work, for example calendar/schedule items showing when the meetings took place and who attended). Ms. Blackman said [in the Aug 7 SOTF audio record] that the signers spent "quite a lot of time" was spent writing this letter. Provide all records showing what public employee work time was spent writing this letter.
7. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all records related to the attempt to lobby the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force to change their rules or procedures, including but not limited to the letter discussed at the SOTF Aug 7 meeting. Including a copy of the letter and all drafts or other versions of this letter.
8. regular request: all correspondence between your Compliance Officer and/or Custodian of Records and/or Public Records Manager and the Group as an entity
9. regular request: all correspondence between your Compliance Officer and/or Custodian of Records and/or Public Records Manager and any of { David Steinberg, Sue Blackman, Hank Heckel, Caroline Celaya, Marianne Mazzucco-Thompson } since Jan. 1, 2019.
10. regular request: Ms. Celaya stated [in the Aug 7 SOTF audio record] that certain best practices have been generated. Provide all policies/best practices written by the Group.
We remind you of your obligations to provide electronic records in any format we request them in, as long as either you hold them in that format, the format is available to you, or the format is easy to generate (Admin Code 67.21(l)). Therefore, calendars exported in the .ics, iCalendar, or vCard formats ("A") and emails exported in the .eml or .msg formats ("B") with all non-exempt headers, metadata, attachments, etc. are our desired formats. Such formats are easily exportable from Google Calendar/Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Exchange or other common calendaring/email systems. However, if you choose to convert electronic calendar items, for example, to PDF or printed format, to easily redact them, you must ensure that you have preserved the full content of the original calendar item record (as specified in requests 1 and 2), which contains many detailed headers beyond the ones generally printed out. If you provide PDFs or printed items with only a few of the headers or lacking attachments/images, and therefore withhold the other headers/attachments without justification, you may be in violation of SF Admin Code 67.21, 67.26, 67.27, Govt Code 6253(a), 6253.9, and/or 6255, and we may challenge your decision. We *do not* waive the requirement of 67.21(l) discussed above, and are merely instructing you to preserve information even if you provide to us the undesirable PDF format.
For word processing documents, either .docx or .pdf formats are fine. For physical items, scanning to PDF format is acceptable.
For this request, we are asking for a City of San Jose v Superior Court (2017) search be performed of the Compliance Officer/Custodian of Records/Public Records Manager and all other members of your department's staff who are a member of or have ever attended the Group, such that each such employee either provide all records responsive to this request present on their personal accounts/devices/property (solely to the extent the record or portion thereof relates to the public's business), or provide a declaration/affidavit that no such records exist. All such affidavits/declarations are also requested as responsive records to this request. Please handle the government account record search as an immediate disclosure search, and the personal search under regular timelines.
Please provide only those copies of records available without any fees. If you determine certain records would require fees, please instead provide the required notice of which of those records are available and non-exempt for inspection in-person if we so choose. Please use email for all responses. I will not use any third-party records management private company's website, and I cannot be required to do so.
I look forward to your immediate disclosure.
Sincerely,
Anonymous

Instead of those public record, I am happy to receive an explanation ("public information" under SFAC 67.20) in writing as to how exactly you exported the ".msg" records that you provided in this case. What steps were taken? Do you make a request of IT department? Do you just manually click certain menu items to export from Outlook/Exchange?
Thank you!

Hi there
A message was sent to you regarding record request #19-3496:
We received your Immediate Disclosure Request, dated Aug. 23. You have requested the following records:
Any manuals, operating procedures, polices, guidelines, instructions, etc. on how your department provides ".msg" email public records.
Our department will identify and compile the requested information. The Sunshine Ordinance requires departments to respond to an Immediate Disclosure Request no later than the close of business the next business day. Therefore, we will contact you as soon as the responsive documents are ready for you to view and will do so on or before Aug. 26, as permitted by San Francisco Administrative Code § 67.25(a).
Regards,
David A. Steinberg
Custodian of Records

Hi there
Record request #19-3496 has been closed and published. The closure reason supplied was:
We have conducted a diligent search for records responsive to your request. We have located responsive records and are releasing them to you. In particular, please see pages 100-102.If you have trouble accessing the files, we can burn the responsive records onto a CD at a rate of $1 per CD or load the responsive records onto a flash drive at a rate of $4 per flash drive. Fees for duplication are subject to change and postage is an additional cost.
If hard copies are needed, we can provide hard copies of any 8.5x11 documents that are made available to you at a cost of 10 cents per copy, as allowed by the San Francisco Administrative Code § 67.28(c). This section states "a fee not to exceed 10 cents per page may be charged." Postage is an additional cost.
Please note that the Public Records Act requires an agency to make available to any person a copy of an “identifiable record or records” in its possession, unless the record is specifically exempt from disclosure. (Please see California Government Code § 6253(b).) The City’s obligation under the Sunshine Ordinance, like the Public Records Act, is to produce public records in its custody. (See San Francisco Administration Code § 67.20(b).) There is no requirement that a department or officer construct a document to meet the specifications of the request.
This concludes your public records request.
Regards,
David A. SteinbergCustodian of RecordsSan Francisco Public Works

Dear SOTF,
I do not know if your full task force meeting's public comment / agenda section allows a submission of written comment. If it does, I would like to include the following 3 paragraph, 109 word comment in writing for whatever is your next task force meeting's agenda:
==== Begin
Anonymous requester would like to thank and commend David Steinberg, Custodian of Records, Public Works, for his and its professionalism and thoroughness in responding to an immediate disclosure request about the Custodian Working Group.
In less than one business day, Mr. Steinberg published online over 100 raw emails and other documents in their native format, metadata, and headers, without contention. In hundreds of PRA/FOIA requests this requester has made across the country, this is the fastest response he has received in a case of this volume.
The PRA response received at https://sanfrancisco.nextrequest.com/requests/19-3455 is the kind of response other City agencies should aspire to.
==== End
There is no complaint, just a comment.
While I am happy to call in to the meeting's accessible bridge conference call to make that public comment if so required, unless I happen to be presenting a case, it seems like it would be a lot of extra work for everyone involved.
Thanks,
Anonymous

Hi,
I just realized that yesterday when I responded to this request, I inadvertently neglected to release the responsive records to you, I have released them now.
Please note that some of the records released yesterday in response to Public Records Request #19-3455 may also be responsive to this request.Because you submitted a single request that I entered as two requests in NextRequest to ensure I met the IDR deadlines, I did not duplicate such files here.

Please note that some of the records released yesterday in response to Public Records Request #19-3455 may also be responsive to this request.Because you submitted a single request that I entered as two requests in NextRequest to ensure I met the IDR deadlines, I did not duplicate such files here.
Regards,
David A. Steinberg
Custodian of Records
San Francisco Public Works

Subject: RE: California Public Records Act Request: Custodian of Records Working Group - Immediate Disclosure Request
Dear SOTF,
I do not know if your full task force meeting's public comment / agenda section allows a submission of written comment. If it does, I would like to include the following 3 paragraph, 109 word comment in writing for whatever is your next task force meeting's agenda:
==== Begin
Anonymous requester would like to thank and commend David Steinberg, Custodian of Records, Public Works, for his and its professionalism and thoroughness in responding to an immediate disclosure request about the Custodian Working Group.
In less than one business day, Mr. Steinberg published online over 100 raw emails and other documents in their native format, metadata, and headers, without contention. In hundreds of PRA/FOIA requests this requester has made across the country, this is the fastest response he has received in a case of this volume.
The PRA response received at https://sanfrancisco.nextrequest.com/requests/19-3455 is the kind of response other City agencies should aspire to.
==== End
There is no complaint, just a comment.
While I am happy to call in to the meeting's accessible bridge conference call to make that public comment if so required, unless I happen to be presenting a case, it seems like it would be a lot of extra work for everyone involved.
Thanks,
Anonymous

Subject: California Public Records Act Request: Custodian of Records Working Group - Immediate Disclosure Request
Dear Department of Public Works ,
This is a new Immediate Disclosure Request under the San Francisco Sunshine Ordinance, made before start of business August 22, 2019.
** Please redact your responses correctly! This is a public mailbox, and all of your responses (including emails, attachments, file shares, and the disclosed records) may be automatically and instantly available to the general public on the MuckRock.com service used to issue this request (though I am not a MuckRock representative). Once you send them to us, there's no going back. **
The audio record of the August 7 SOTF meeting appears to reference a "Custodian of Records Working Group" (aka "Custodian Working Group", called the "Group" below) of public employees attempting to, among other things, lobby (in a colloquial sense), via a letter, the SOTF to impose certain suggestions or restrictions on the behavior of the public. Perhaps my impression is incorrect; I would like to know more.
I request under the San Francisco Sunshine Ordinance (Ordinance) and the California Public Records Act (CPRA):
1. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all agendas (draft or final) of meetings of the Group
2. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all minutes (draft or final) of meetings of the Group
3. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all listings of the membership/roster of the Group
4. regular request: all supporting documentation used at meetings of the Group
5. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all records showing any budget allocations or other financial support given to the Group
6. regular request: all records that would demonstrate the public monies being used to support the activities of the Group (including showing the time spent by public employees performing Group work, for example calendar/schedule items showing when the meetings took place and who attended). Ms. Blackman said [in the Aug 7 SOTF audio record] that the signers spent "quite a lot of time" was spent writing this letter. Provide all records showing what public employee work time was spent writing this letter.
7. IMMEDIATE DISCLOSURE REQUEST: all records related to the attempt to lobby the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force to change their rules or procedures, including but not limited to the letter discussed at the SOTF Aug 7 meeting. Including a copy of the letter and all drafts or other versions of this letter.
8. regular request: all correspondence between your Compliance Officer and/or Custodian of Records and/or Public Records Manager and the Group as an entity
9. regular request: all correspondence between your Compliance Officer and/or Custodian of Records and/or Public Records Manager and any of { David Steinberg, Sue Blackman, Hank Heckel, Caroline Celaya, Marianne Mazzucco-Thompson } since Jan. 1, 2019.
10. regular request: Ms. Celaya stated [in the Aug 7 SOTF audio record] that certain best practices have been generated. Provide all policies/best practices written by the Group.
We remind you of your obligations to provide electronic records in any format we request them in, as long as either you hold them in that format, the format is available to you, or the format is easy to generate (Admin Code 67.21(l)). Therefore, calendars exported in the .ics, iCalendar, or vCard formats ("A") and emails exported in the .eml or .msg formats ("B") with all non-exempt headers, metadata, attachments, etc. are our desired formats. Such formats are easily exportable from Google Calendar/Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Exchange or other common calendaring/email systems. However, if you choose to convert electronic calendar items, for example, to PDF or printed format, to easily redact them, you must ensure that you have preserved the full content of the original calendar item record (as specified in requests 1 and 2), which contains many detailed headers beyond the ones generally printed out. If you provide PDFs or printed items with only a few of the headers or lacking attachments/images, and therefore withhold the other headers/attachments without justification, you may be in violation of SF Admin Code 67.21, 67.26, 67.27, Govt Code 6253(a), 6253.9, and/or 6255, and we may challenge your decision. We *do not* waive the requirement of 67.21(l) discussed above, and are merely instructing you to preserve information even if you provide to us the undesirable PDF format.
For word processing documents, either .docx or .pdf formats are fine. For physical items, scanning to PDF format is acceptable.
For this request, we are asking for a City of San Jose v Superior Court (2017) search be performed of the Compliance Officer/Custodian of Records/Public Records Manager and all other members of your department's staff who are a member of or have ever attended the Group, such that each such employee either provide all records responsive to this request present on their personal accounts/devices/property (solely to the extent the record or portion thereof relates to the public's business), or provide a declaration/affidavit that no such records exist. All such affidavits/declarations are also requested as responsive records to this request. Please handle the government account record search as an immediate disclosure search, and the personal search under regular timelines.
Please provide only those copies of records available without any fees. If you determine certain records would require fees, please instead provide the required notice of which of those records are available and non-exempt for inspection in-person if we so choose. Please use email for all responses. I will not use any third-party records management private company's website, and I cannot be required to do so.
I look forward to your immediate disclosure.
Sincerely,
Anonymous
