SGT Myers,

Thanks for the update! If you'd prefer we submit to the agency in West Columbia that retains the contract, please let us know the name of the person/department and we can take this off your hands.

Grateful for your help.

From: West Columbia Police Department

I apologize for the delay in my response. I was out sick all of last week and it’s a one-man show around here for FOIA requests. I was finally able to track down who had the ShotSpotter contract and get a copy of it. The only redacted portion pertains to actual coverage area within the city as that information is not open to public dissemination. If its not too much trouble, could you please confirm receipt of this information. The fee will be waived for this request.
