What County Counsel said

The August 10 letter responds to the five-item focused CPRA request submitted July 28. As a preliminary position, County Counsel states that the CPRA does not require the Sheriff to label each responsive record by request item, describe the details of its search process, or create a privilege log.

The one newly produced email chain is archived separately because it bears on more than one topic: Board-presentation preparation, outgoing ACSO–Flock correspondence, and the two remaining camera installations.
