Subject: Connecticut FOIA request: plate-reader governance
Under Connecticut's Freedom of Information Act, CGS chapter 14, I request copies of these existing records maintained by [public agency/department] for [start date] through [end date]:
1. Written plate-reader operating policies, retention schedules, authorized-use rules and audit procedures effective during the period.
2. Executed equipment and data-service contracts, amendments, purchase orders and invoices during the period.
3. Existing executed sharing agreements and existing lists of agencies or other sharing partners effective during the period.
4. Existing aggregate audit or compliance reports for [narrow date range], subject to lawful withholding or redaction.
This request does not assert that the department operates the technology or holds every listed record. It concerns existing governance and spending records rather than a newly prepared study, individual plate detections, movement histories or sensitive operational security details.
For nonexempt computer-stored information, I prefer an electronic copy in [reasonably available format] sent to [email]. Please identify any practical or legal limitation on that format.
If a portion is withheld, please identify the legal basis and provide any portions that can lawfully be released. Please provide any denial in writing and identify the records or categories affected.
Please acknowledge receipt and provide prompt access or copies under the applicable law. If clarification or narrowing would assist, please contact me. A status estimate is requested for planning; this template does not substitute a fixed production deadline for Connecticut's promptness standard.
Before charges exceed [$ amount], please provide an itemized estimate and contact me so I can consider narrowing the request. Please identify the statutory basis, copy or medium charges, any permitted electronic-copy costs and any required prepayment. Please consider a fee waiver under CGS 1-212(d) based on [truthful qualifying grounds and supporting explanation]. This request does not approve charges above the stated amount or assert waiver eligibility without supporting facts.
