Researching East Sac County School Board President Chuck Brotherton's 1000 emails in real time May 19 - 1:38AM

Time: 0138

Dr. Fiene,
The following is an excerpt of a Freedom of Information Act Request that I submitted on May 3, 2011 that you verbally acknowledge receipt of on May 5, 2011.

“- I now wish to request a copy of all archived records of any type of communication between you and East Sac County School Board President Chuck Brotherton dating from November 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010 regarding any topic.

- On April 20, 2011 you sent a mass mailing to many staff entitled RE: ***BULK*** board meeting summary. I have a copy of the cover letter, (so to speak,) but you did not include the attachment that was apparently part of this email. I request a copy of that record.

- Additionally, I’d like to request the copy of all of Jared Strong’s, FOIA requests that you received between April 1, 2011 to March 2, 2011.

Again, in the spirit of Iowa’s open records laws please redact if absolutely necessary rather than denying review of the entire record. Please let me know via email what the charge, (if any,) for these records will be.

- The last item for today will be a question. Do you provide archival services for all school board director's communications related to board business or are they their own record keepers for their communications with other board members?”

You and I ascertained verbally on May 5, 2011 that I already have in my possession the item that is the subject of the second tick mark. During that same May 5, 2011 discussion you also indicated that the school does not provide archival services for its school board members.

As of May 19, 2011 you have not fulfilled with or denied my request for the items requested after the first tick mark or second tick mark above.

I’m sure you are very busy and have forgotten that I have requested these items. As you are a man of high character, I assume that you wish to comply with Iowa law which suggests that you answer FOIA requests as quickly as possible. This, therefore is a simple reminder that I am waiting for either a copy of these records or a written denial of my request.

Thank you,
Curtis Bloes

Dr. Fiene,

This morning I sent you a Freedom of Information Act Request and in it I indicated the wrong item.

For clarity, here are the items for which I am still awaiting a response:

1. A copy of all archived records of any type of communication between you and East Sac County School Board President Chuck Brotherton dating from November 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010 regarding any topic.

2 A copy of all of Jared Strong’s, FOIA requests that you received between April 1, 2011 to March 2, 2011.

Thank you,
Curtis Bloes

Hi Curtis,

Got your messages and will pull the information together as soon as possible … will try to do that this weekend. I actually appreciate the reminder as things have been a bit hectic. Hope you have a great day.

Kevin
