Seattle Mayor Calendar 2017-11 - 2018-10

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

A full and complete copy, including vacation days, of Jenny Durkan's calendar(s), beginning at the time of her hiring by the city for the job of mayor, including metadata. Please note that this should include all past and future events that exist in the calendar(s) at this time. I would like to receive the calendar(s) in a standard electronic calendar format such as iCal/ICS. Please do not instead render to a print-focused format such as PDF.

It is my understanding that City of Seattle staff use Microsoft Office 365 for calendaring. A helpful guide to exporting a snapshot of one's Outlook for Office 365, Outlook 2019, Outlook 2016, or Outlook 2013 calendar is available on the following web page in section "Export your calendar from Outlook": <https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Export-an-Outlook-calendar-to-Google-Calendar-662FA3BB-0794-4B18-ADD8-9968B665F4E6>. In short, open a calendar, click "save calendar," provide desired filename, indicate date range, choose amount of detail (all of it, please), click "OK," then click "Save."

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

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.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.

I look forward to receiving your response to this request within five business days. As you know, the PRA requires you to take one of four actions within that time period: 1) provide requested records, 2) provide URL of the records as published on your website, 3) deny request and provide detailed accounting of exemptions that apply, 4) acknowledge receipt of request, inform me that you need more time in order to respond, and provide an estimate of when you will respond. If your action is #4, please save us both some time and state along with your notification which of the legally-allowed reasons for delay is applicable: 1) you need me to clarify my request; 2) you need to locate and assemble record(s) I requested (this should not apply, as these records are centrally stored and it will take mere seconds to assemble them, as described above); 3) you need to notify third persons or agencies affected by the request (should not apply, as doing so is optional, never required of a public agency, and thus does not justify delay); 4) you need to determine whether any of the records I requested, or portion(s) thereof, is exempt and thus that part or all of my request should be denied.

Sincerely,

Phil Mocek
