Hi there
A message was sent to you regarding record request #21-2696:
Dear Mr. Richards:
Your request for records from the St. Louis County Police Department has been received. I am the Custodian of Records for the Police Department.
Due to the state of emergency in St. Louis County and ongoing health concerns, there is currently reduced on-site staffing for the Department. The Department will therefore need additional time to determine if it possesses records responsive to the request and to evaluate if the records are open or closed, either in whole or part, pursuant to the applicable provisions of Chapter 610 RSMo and Chapter 114 SLCRO. We do not anticipate being able to begin processing your request(s) until February 26, 2021, but will process your request as expeditiously as possible.
Thank you for your patience.
Sincerely,
