Subject: Public Records Request: Joshua Freed e-mail with mayors/managers since 2016-09-01 (Des Moines)

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to RCW Ch. 42.56 (Public Records Act), I hereby request the following records:

To whom it may concern:

## Background ##

On September 15, 2016, Seattle's, Auburn's, Renton's and King County's [Heroin and Prescription Opiate Addiction Task Force][1] issued a set of [recommendations][2] comprising a strategy for confronting the region's growing heroin and opioid epidemic. The recommendations focused on prevention, increasing access to treatment on demand, and reducing the number of fatal overdoses. Among those recommendations was that a pilot project be initiated with the establishment of two supervised consumption spaces--public health facilities also known by several other names, including community health engagement locations, in which people living with substance use disorder would be allowed to use otherwise-prohibited drugs in a clean environment that provides supervision, medical assistance, and connections to health care and long-term treatment. The task force recommended that for the pilot program, one of these facilities be located in Seattle and the other be located elsewhere in King County. About four months later, Seattle Mayor Ed Murray and King County Executive Dow Constantine formally [accepted all recommendations][3] issued by the task force.

On May 11, 2017, a public initiative to ban supervised consumption sites in King County was [announced][4]. Chief sponsor of the proposed initiative (I-27) is Bothell City Council member Joshua Freed. The campaign formed a political action committee called Impaction, and Freed was later [reported][5] as the top donor to the PAC, having contributed $40,000 to it.

In an e-mail dated August 18, 2017, Andy Rheaume, mayor of Bothell, Washington, wrote to Joshua Freed, former mayor and current member of Bothell City Council, reporting that Mr. Freed had previously sent both inaccurate and misleading information about supervised consumption sites to unspecified mayors in multiple King County cities:

Hi Mr. Mocek,

When you click on the link, https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/3021dcd0-f229-4ac7-90c4-2993b563d3b7, does it not take you to responsive e-mails?

We use a program Adobe Document Cloud to create links for those items that are too large to send via e-mail. When I click on the link it takes me to responsive documents but not sure if it’s because I am in house or not. I can also send them to you a few at a time, there are 14 total.

Please let me know. I am happy to try another way for you.

Thank you,
Bonnie

## Request ##

Pursuant to RCW Ch. 42.56 (Public Records Act), I request all e-mail correspondence between Joshua Freed and your city's mayor and/or city manager since September 1, 2016. This should include messages to or from any e-mail address used by Mr. Freed, either public or private (e.g., joshua.freed@ci.bothell.wa.us<mailto:joshua.freed@ci.bothell.wa.us>, joshua.freed@bothellwa.gov<mailto:joshua.freed@bothellwa.gov>, joshuafreed@mac.com<mailto:joshuafreed@mac.com>, info@impacwa.com<mailto:info@impacwa.com>, etc.) This should include but not be limited to any of the messages cited by Bothell mayor Andy Rheaume when he wrote of Mr. Freed's messages to various King County mayors that reportedly contained both inaccurate information and misleading information pertaining to plans for supervised drug consumption sites or to the potential banning thereof.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

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,

Phil Mocek

Subject: RE: Public Records Request: Joshua Freed e-mail with mayors/managers since 2016-09-01 (Des Moines)

Dear Ms. Wilkins,

Short answer: As a courtesy, I browsed to the website you referenced and examined the PDFs of e-mail messages you stored there. Though these do not include all metadata of the original messages, I am amble to determine that there are none concerning the topic of my research--supervised consumption sites. I thank you for your prompt assistance and consider this request closed with satisfactory outcome.

Longer answer: This mechanism does not satisfy a public agency's duty under the PRA, as you neither sent copies of the records nor provided links to specific locations on your agency's website where they are stored. Further, when e-mail messages have been rendered to PDF, it is much like one is looking at a printout of an e-mail rather than the message itself. For printing purposes, this is fine, but if one wanted to load those messages into standard Internet e-mail software (e.g., Thunderbird, Mail.app, Outlook, etc.), one could not do so, and thus could not see the relationships between one message and another, use standard searching and filtering, etc. In other situations, I would try to assist you with sending the messages in their native electronic format, but as I wrote above, this will suffice.

Thanks!

Cordially,
Phil Mocek

## Request ##

Pursuant to RCW Ch. 42.56 (Public Records Act), I request all e-mail correspondence between Joshua Freed and your city's mayor and/or city manager since September 1, 2016. This should include messages to or from any e-mail address used by Mr. Freed, either public or private (e.g., joshua.freed@ci.bothell.wa.us<mailto:joshua.freed@ci.bothell.wa.us<mailto:joshua.freed@ci.bothell.wa.us%3cmailto:joshua.freed@ci.bothell.wa.us>>, joshua.freed@bothellwa.gov<mailto:joshua.freed@bothellwa.gov<mailto:joshua.freed@bothellwa.gov%3cmailto:joshua.freed@bothellwa.gov>>, joshuafreed@mac.com<mailto:joshuafreed@mac.com<mailto:joshuafreed@mac.com%3cmailto:joshuafreed@mac.com>>, info@impacwa.com<mailto:info@impacwa.com<mailto:info@impacwa.com%3cmailto:info@impacwa.com>>, etc.) This should include but not be limited to any of the messages cited by Bothell mayor Andy Rheaume when he wrote of Mr. Freed's messages to various King County mayors that reportedly contained both inaccurate information and misleading information pertaining to plans for supervised drug consumption sites or to the potential banning thereof.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

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,

Phil Mocek
