Request #6396

Mr. Wennbo,

You requested "Anything involving cats i.e.- officers dispatched to a residence, correspondence between officers by phone, email, or calls, correspondence between officers and OC Humane Society in Huntington Beach involving cats, residents calling about cats ,emails involving cats, or anytime a cat was picked up by an officer dead or alive." Because this request is very similar to the requests received in two prior occasions, Requests Nos. 5491 and 6118, we responded that we have already provided all responsive records in our possession in response to those requests. Your follow up response now indicates that you seek records pertaining to 2018 through 2019.

This request is objected to on the grounds that, as phrased, is vague, overly broad and unduly burdensome. Note that in Rogers v. Superior Court, (1993) 19 Cal. App.4th 469, 481, the Court held that requests for public records must be focused and specific. We suggest that perhaps you might specify whether the records you are interested in relate to a specific issue or event pertaining to a specific residence, and/or limiting your request to events occurring within specific dates.

PLEASE NOTE: Future records requests can be submitted by accessing the City’s website at https://ggcity.org/records_request/

Thank you,
City Clerk’s Office
City of Garden Grove

As previously stated, the documents in the City’s possession responsive to your request have been provided in response to public records request 5941. We have no other records pertaining to the description provided in this request and request 6118. If you are looking for any specific information, perhaps you can refine the request for us by providing a specific date and time, residence address, and officer/Humane Society representative name.

Thank you,
City Clerk’s Office
City of Garden Grove
