When a copy of a record is requested and the record cannot be produced immediately, the District will determine whether they can comply within 10 days of receipt of the request.
Requests are also accepted via email, by mail, or in person. If the District cannot meet the 10-day requirement, they shall promptly inform the requester of their decision and the reasons for the decision. The initial 10-day period may be extended for up to an additional 14 days if the District needs additional time to search for documents, or if the request is voluminous. (Gov.
