This is acknowledgement that my office is in receipt of your below emailed public records request dated Saturday, June 27, 2020 addressed to our Plant City Police Department. Our office will begin the process of reviewing your request and will respond in accordance of applicable law.

We only provide the information in the electronic format in which we maintain the records in and are not required to create new records to accommodate certain formatted requests should this be requested, per Florida Statute Chapter 119.01 (f).

Hi Mr. Lipton,
I was informed last week that our HR Department is working with our insurance carrier regarding your request and reason for the delay. You are requesting records dated back to 2010 to present and as stated in my previous response may cause a delay in researching due to age etc...
I have not been provided a timeline or any estimated cost due to extensive research that may be applicable if any to date. I will check again with our HR Department to find out if they have been provided a timeline yet as to when we can expect an estimated response time and get back with you either by the end today or tomorrow at the latest. Appreciate your patience in this matter.
Thank you,
