Re: Freedom of Information Request

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552, [and/or the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a,] I hereby request copies of all records pertaining to (including but not limited to):

Copies, including but not limited to,  (Be specific about what you are looking for!)

If any expenses in excess of $25.00 are incurred in connection with this request, please obtain my approval before any charges are incurred.

In addition, I request a waiver of fees because my interest in the records is not primarily commercial and disclosure of the information will contribute significantly to public understanding of the activities of our town government.

I will expect a written response within 20 working days as provided by law. If my request is denied in whole or in part, I expect a detailed justification for withholding the records. I also request any segregable portions that are not exempt to be disclosed.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

If you have any questions, you can reach me at (Your Phone Number)

Very truly yours,

(Sign Your Name)
