Thank you for submitting a records request to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department.  Your request was given reference number P032843-102423, for tracking purposes. Type of Records Selected: Other Police Record Complaint Number (if applicable): Type of Incident (if applicable): Description of Request (if applicable):  To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Missouri Sunshine Law., I hereby request the following records for the fiscal years of 2020, 2021, 2022 and current fiscal year 2023:

• Any and all records of procurement, budgeting and expenditure reporting documents for the St Louis Metropolitan Police Department’s Real-Time Crime Center (RTCC);

• Any and all records that show the locations of the cameras and automated-license plate recognition systems (ALPRs) that feed into the RTCC (e.g. GPS location, Latitude/Longitude, location of intersection, etc.);

• Any and all contracts, agreements, and procurement records for use of automated license plate recognition systems (APLRs) for the RTCC;

• Any and all contracts, agreements, and procurement records related to the use of ShotSpotter technology with the RTCC;

• Any and all contracts, agreements, training materials and procurement records related to the use of software, databases, systems, technology and data analysis for the RTCC;

• Any and all records reflecting the number of staff and salaries of employees at the RTCC;

• Any and all records reflecting the organizational structure and command structure of the Real-time Crime Center;

• All records of contracts, agreements, MOUs with external law enforcement agencies, including but not limited to the FBI, CIA, DEA, USMS, ATF, DHS, Missouri Highway Patrol, etc.;

• Any and all records mentioning or referring to all versions of the RTCC’s privacy policies and guidelines pertaining to the collection, use, retention and disposition of recorded content from the RTCC cameras and APLR information for the timeframes noted in this request. Please include guidelines on how citizens are to access all content which is open to the public from the RTCC through the use of the Missouri Sunshine Law Request process.

I request that in conducting searches for releasable records, that you please disclose records even if they are currently available publicly through (your agency portal) other sources outside of your agency, such as the Missouri Accountability Portal or the National Archives and Records Administration

As the records sought detail the operations and activities of our government, I also request that fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public’s interest. I am seeking the records to analyze, inform and freely release to members of the public as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com. The requested records are not for commercial use.

I am willing to pay all reasonable duplication expenses incurred in the processing this Sunshine Law request. However, as I am a member of the public and requesting documents specifically for the purpose of increasing the public’s knowledge of governmental functioning, I will administratively appeal any denial of my request for a fee waiver.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request be filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or USB thumb drive if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 3 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Kevin Hawkins
