RECORDS SOUGHT All written communications -- including without limitation email, text/SMS, Microsoft Teams or Slack chat, calendar invitation, meeting note, internal memorandum, help-desk or IT ticket, file-transfer or upload record, and case-management-system note -- sent, received, or retained by any City of Sacramento employee, contractor, or agent, between September 1, 2025 and the date this request is processed, concerning the processing, scoping, intake, assignment, routing, search, review, redaction, production, extension, denial, or closure of any of the following NextRequest requests filed by me, Christopher Foley: 25-3549, 25-4711, 26-39, 26-71, 26-1060, 26-1061, 26-1265, 26-1549, 26-1963, 26-1964, 26-1965. Custodians include but are not limited to: Anna Sorensen, Mindy Cuppy, Jena Swafford, Melanie Haage, Amanda Ramirez, and any other Office of the City Clerk records officer; Paul Lovato, Doug Pierson, Bo Cosley, and any Community Development / Code Enforcement supervisor; any City Attorney's Office staff who advised on these requests; any IT, eCAPS, Accela, or Citizenserve administrator who ran a query, generated a file, or transferred data in response to these requests; and any outside vendor or contractor that touched any production. THIS REQUEST IS NOT FOR NEW INFORMATION. I ALREADY POSSESS EVIDENCE THAT THE RESPONSIVE CORPUS EXISTS. Specifically: 1. The November 7, 2025 closure email from Anna Sorensen on Request 25-3549 stating "all responsive records have been provided" -- this communication alone confirms Ms. Sorensen authored internal-routing material concerning 25-3549. 2. The October 23, 2025 production of the case-file PDF (approximately 1.62 GB) followed by the November 6, 2025 regenerated PDF (approximately 50 MB) -- produced via a different software pipeline, confirming that internal communications about regeneration, software selection, and authorization were generated and retained. 3. The November 7, 2025 release of "Request 25-3549_311.xlsx" AFTER 25-3549 was closed, containing 311 ticket #230317-1609966 that had been excluded from the October 31, 2025 export -- confirming someone reviewed the prior closure, identified the omission, authorized a re-release, and communicated about it. 4. The December 29, 2025 closure of Request 25-4711 by Jena Swafford within 39 minutes of filing, producing "Re_ 4880 T Street Jackie's House - 25-3549.pdf" -- confirming the existence of internal communications about 4880 T Street and Case 23-009185 that are stored, retrievable, and were located in under 39 minutes. 5. The January 6, 2026 closure of Request 26-39 within 22 minutes with "no responsive records" -- confirming a documented intake/scoping decision was made and recorded by Jena Swafford in those 22 minutes. 6. The five (5) extension notices issued under Govt Code section 7922.535(b) on Request 26-71 between January and March 2026 -- each of which is, by statute, a written determination by a specifically identified City official communicated internally before transmission to the requester. 7. The March 26, 2026 closure of Request 26-71 by Mindy Cuppy producing "PRA 26-71 - Paul Lovato Case Notes.xlsx" (1,408 entries, 331 cases) -- confirming internal communications between the records officer and the case-management-system administrator who generated the filtered export. 8. The May 18, 2026 closure language used by Mindy Cuppy on Requests 26-1963 and 26-1964 -- "All records were provided under 26-1549" -- confirming that a cross-request mapping decision was made and documented. 9. The differential routing of Request 26-1965 (filed May 17, 2026) to Anna Sorensen, where the contemporaneously-filed 26-1963 and 26-1964 were routed to Mindy Cuppy -- confirming an intake-routing decision exists as a record. 10. The City's prior production under Request 25-4711 of a Paul Lovato email -- confirming that internal City email about 4880 T Street and Case 23-009185 is preserved in the City's email archive and is retrievable. 11. The City's repeated written correspondence with Karin Owens (kowensfoley@gmail.com) -- already in my possession via Ms. Owens -- confirming that the City has retained third-party correspondence concerning 4880 T Street, which presupposes the existence of internal communications coordinating that outreach. 12. Every closure transmittal published on the NextRequest portal at cityofsacramentoca.nextrequest.com for the eleven listed requests -- each is a record published by the City Clerk's office. WHY A "NO RESPONSIVE RECORDS" ANSWER IS NOT LEGALLY AVAILABLE HERE Govt Code section 7922.535(a) required the City to make and memorialize a written determination of responsiveness for each of the eleven listed requests, producing at minimum eleven responsive records. Govt Code section 7922.535(b) required the City to issue written extension notices on Request 26-71 (five times) and on others as applicable. The records identified above independently confirm the existence of internal coordination communications. Any response asserting that no responsive records exist will be treated as a misrepresentation under section 7922.005 and California Constitution Article I section 3(b)(2), and will be preserved as evidence in support of a writ proceeding under Govt Code section 7923.000. FORMAT Native electronic format (.eml, .msg, .pdf with embedded metadata, .xlsx, .csv, .docx). Do NOT flatten emails to image-only PDF. Include all message metadata (From, To, Cc, Bcc, Date/Time, Message-ID, Subject, Attachment filenames). For text messages, produce the full thread with timestamps and participant phone numbers. ITEMIZATION OF ANY WITHHOLDING For any record withheld in full or in part, identify by date, custodian, recipient(s), subject or description, and the specific Govt Code subsection relied upon, sufficient to permit evaluation of the basis for withholding (Haynie v. Superior Court (2001) 26 Cal.4th 1061). DUTY TO ASSIST Govt Code section 7922.600 applies. If any portion of this request is unclear, the City is required to communicate with me to clarify before denial or narrowing. Christopher T.
