Message from Denise Kehn

Dear Mr. Nguyen,

Your request seeks emails from the following individuals for a period of 12 months:

Mayor Bao Nguyen
Mayor Pro Tem Steve Jones
Councilman Christopher Phan
Councilman Phat Bui
Councilman Kris Beard
Chief Elgin
Captain TJ Smith
Captain Boddy
Captain Stauffer

The City objects to your request on the basis that it is overly broad, unduly burdensome, and not focused and specific. (Rogers v. Superior Court (1993) 19 Cal.App.4th 469, 481) The City anticipates there will be tens of thousands of emails responsive to your request. Each of these emails would have to be reviewed for privileged and exempt information, which would require a significant amount of staff time. The City requests that you narrow your request by shortening the time-frame to 3 months or less, providing a specific topic, or identifying keywords to include in the email search.

Sincerely,
Denise Kehn
Records Specialist
