We previously responded to the same request by e-mail dated 7-3-23. Your 7-14-23 e-mail is purely for the purposes of harassment of the City of Stamford and the Stamford Police Department.

To Whom It May Concern,

The public information requested clearly meets Federal and State Law pursuit to Freedom of Information requests. It is not vexatious nor voluminous. I have narrowed the dates of the requested documents further.
Failure to provide the requested information within the timeframe prescribed by law will result in an Appeal to the State of Connecticut Freedom of Information Commission.

Please be advised that your request is denied for the following reason:

There is no central file containing FOI requests. In order to locate FOI requests for the time period in question, the Records Division would have to review hundreds of files. That constitutes research, which is not required by the FOI Act.
