RE: Open Data Implementation - Immediate Disclosure Request ( Office of the Mayor )

Mayor's Office,

Below are Immediate Disclosure Requests (SF Admin Code 67.25(a)). Your response is required by Jan 7, 2020. Rolling records responses are requested (SFAC 67.25(d)). Exact copies of every responsive record are requested (Gov Code 6253(b)) - do not provide mere URLs, or print and scan electronic records. Provide only copies of records not requiring fees and in-person inspection of all other records (GC 6253).

Your non-exhaustive obligations: All withholding of any information must be justified (SFAC 67.27). All withholdings by masking or deletion (aka redactions) must be keyed by footnote or other clear reference to justification and only the minimal exempt portion of a record may be withheld (SFAC 67.26). Provide records by email (SFAC 67.21(b)). You must notify us of whether or not responsive records exist and/or were withheld for each below request (Gov Code 6253(c), 6255(b)). You must state the name and title of each person responsible for withholding any information (Gov Code 6253(d)).

We have no duty to, and we will not again, remind the City of its obligations. Instead, we will file complaints for every Sunshine Ordinance or CPRA violation.

1. records identifying your agency's Data Coordinator (DC) under SFAC 22D.2(c)(3)
2. the Open Data plan prepared for your agency under SFAC 22D.2(c)(3)
3. any lists of data sets your agency makes publicly-available under SFAC 22D.2(c)(1)
4. any lists of and documentation for application programming interfaces your agency makes publicly-available under SFAC 22D.2(c)(4)(A)
5. the responses provided by your DC in CY 2019 to comments and public feedback under SFAC 22D.2(c)(4)(D)

NOTE: Please be certain you have properly redacted all of your responses. Once you send them to us, there is no going back. The email address sending this request is a publicly- viewable mailbox. All of your responses (including all responsive records) may be instantly and automatically available to the public online via the MuckRock.com FOIA service used to issue this request (though the requester is an anonymous user, not a representative of MuckRock).
