Record Requested:  To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Oregon Public Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

Please provide every public record provided in response to requesters in calendar year 2021 by any department, sub-unit or employee of the City of Portland. In your administrative closure of C222351-040422 you stated " If the records were provided once, we provide them subsequently at no cost,..." so I would like all those records provided once in 2021.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

At this time, the City is uncertain whether it is the custodian of the requested record.  The City will review your request to determine if it has responsive records.  The City will then gather an estimate of the costs to provide copies of requested public records for which the City does not claim an exemption from disclosure.  The City is permitted to charge its actual costs to provide records.  Fees include research time to locate and analyze the requested records, even if no records are located or if the requested records are determined to be exempt from disclosure.

You can monitor the progress of your request at the link below.  Thank you for using the Portland Public Records Request Center.

Your request is very broad and may result in the collection of a large number of records.  The City estimates that your request involved approximately 46,961 public records requests.  While it is difficult to estimate the time to download and review messages from these requests, at this time my best estimate is that it will take 1033 hours at the public records rate of $67.98.  I encourage you to narrow your request by limiting the date range, the email account searched and/or the search terms.  If you are interested in working with me on refining your request to get you the information you seek, at a lower cost to you, please let me know.
An invoice has been created for 50% of this estimate.  392 business days after the deposit is paid, the records will be ready.  However, they will not be provided until the final amount is paid.  If the final amount incurred is less than the estimate, you will only be charged actual costs.  If the work significantly exceeds the estimate, the City will contact you with a new estimate.
By paying the 50% deposit, you are confirming this estimate and agreeing to pay the cost of fulfilling this public records request according to the conditions set forth by the City.  The costs may include the cost of locating records, reviewing records to redact exempt material, supervising the inspection of records, copying records, certifying records and mailing records, including the cost of searching for records.  We will not be working on your request until we receive the 50% deposit.
Please reply to this message or log in to the Portland Public Records Request Center and indicate that you agree to pay the estimate.  You may pay by electronic check or credit card by going to "My Public Records Request Center" and select "View My Invoices".  Then scroll to find the invoice and select "Make Payment".  Follow the screen prompts to make a payment.  Alternatively, you may mail a check made payable to "The City of Portland" (not recommended during remote work).  Please be sure and provide the Record Request Reference number (C226622-050222) on your check and mail it to:
