Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act [RCW 42.56] I hereby request the following records:

PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY OF ELECTRONIC RECORDS
The use of 3rd party “portals” (Such as GOVQA or NEXTREQUEST) for communication and production of records in response to a public records request is optional for the requestor in the State of Washington. Respectfully we decline to use any 3rd party "portal" system, specifically GOVQA and NEXTREQUEST. Please provide all records electronically via direct email attachment, or via no password, no registration internet cloud-based download link.
Please do not direct or invite us to use, register for, or communicate with your agency via any 3rd party portal including but not limited to FOIAOnline, GovQA, NextRequest, FOIAExpress, JustFOIA FOIADirect, WebForm, or any other commercial 3rd party records portal service.
RCW 42.56.080 - Identifiable records—Facilities for copying—Availability of public records.
"...Agencies shall honor requests received in person during an agency's normal office hours, or by mail or email, for identifiable public records unless exempted by provisions of this chapter. No official format is required for making a records request; however, agencies may recommend that requestors submit requests using an agency provided form or web page."
This public records request is being made via email to your agency’s publicly posted public records request email address: publicrecordsrequest@vansd.org. This public records request will be honored and fulfilled by your agency via email as requested or relief will be sought per statute.
NATIVE ELECTRONIC FORMAT
Please provide all identified public records in their NATIVE electronic format.

FEES
In the event that there are fees, please inform us of the total charges in advance of fulfilling the request in strict compliance with all provisions of the Washington State Public Records Act.
EXEMPTION LOGS
Please ensure all redactions or exemptions claimed by your agency in the production of responsive records are accompanied by a complete and detailed exemption log noting the valid legal reason for each exemption at each redaction location in the record produced, as well as the specific number of pages if any that your agency redacts or withholds in their entirety. Each redaction should be noted by footnote or by a clear reference to the specific justification for that redaction, and only the minimal exempt portion of any record may be withheld.
COMMERICAL PURPOSE DECLARATION

I declare this public records request is not being made for any commercial purpose whatsoever. Also, this public records request is not being made for a "list of individuals."

No additional commercial purpose declaration will be completed for this public records request.
