Re: Request for Prompt Access to Public Records and possible copies of same
To Whom It May Concern:
The undersigned requests prompt and timely access to public records in the possession of the County of San Diego. After access and review of the public records the undersigned may request copies of documents.
PUPROSE OF THE REQUEST:
A recent letter addressed to the undersigned accompanied by a check for $50.51 in which the San Diego Sheriff’s Department acknowledges collecting CCW fee’s “erroneously” has prompted this request for review of public records.
Specifically the undersigned is looking to review public records to determine the total amount of fees which may have been “erroneously” collected by San Diego County under the provisions mandated by California Penal Code Sections 12054.
Examination of related public records which document the exact amount of fees collected and returned by CCW applicants broken down by individuals who made payments of fees to the County Sheriff’s Department as part of the initial first time application process for Concealed Carry Gun Permits will determine if the provisions as set forth in California Penal Code Section 12054 have been followed or violated by the County of San Diego.
The undersigned will attempt by reviewing public records to answer to the following questions:
1. The total amount of funds collected from initial first time applicants for Concealed Carry Permits.
2. The total amount of funds returned to initial first time applicants for Concealed Carry Permit following denials.
3. The total amount of funds collected erroneously by the San Diego Sheriff’s Department during the specific period of time stated.
4. The number of individual refunds made to initial first time applicants for Concealed Carry Permits following denials of their applications.
SPECIFIC PERIOD OF TIME BEING REVIEWED:
The undersigned requests any and all public records created during the period from January 1, 2006 to January 31, 2010.
TYPES OF RECORDS REQUESTED:
The undersigned is aware of the fact that the San Diego Sheriff’s Department has a well established two appointment process for accepting reviewing and rendering decisions on initial first time CCW applications.
The stated policy of the San Diego Sheriff’s Department establishes that the completed application and funds collected occurs during or immediately following the second of two scheduled interviews.
The undersigned has reason to believe that in each incident where an initial first time application for a Concealed Carry (CCW) Permit was submitted, there may or should be a paper and/or electronic public record trail documenting the process where fees are collected, recorded, deposited, transferred, sent to other Federal, State or County agencies or refunded to the denied applicant.
Public records may exist such as:
Letters received from or sent to first time CCW applicants
Sign in Logs in the License and Permit Section of the Sheriff’s Department which document interviews for CCW permits
Written or Electronic Receipts for moneys collected from CCW applicants
Fingerprint records and DOJ fee records of first time CCW applicants
Documents of deposits or Transmittal of funds collected during initial CCW applications
Correspondence to those CCW applicants denied following an initial first time CCW application
Claim and Voucher for Refund of Money forms sent to individuals who have had their first time CCW applications denied
Additionally, the undersigned requests prompt access to any and all internal memos or documents which were created, exchanged, received or distributed by employees of the County of San Diego as part of any process to refund any improperly collected funds under provisions of California Penal Code Section 12054.
By accessing any and all documents pertaining to initial interviews and appointments where CCW fees have been collected, the total and individual amounts demanded and collected from individuals who made initial applications for Concealed Carry CCW Permits with the San Diego Sheriff’s Department during the period of January 1, 2006 and January 31, 2010 should be easily determined.
REDACTION OF RECORDS:
The undersigned has no objection to redaction of any names associated with the fees collected from individuals for initial CCW applications.
The undersigned represents as part of this request that one or more County of San Diego forms with the heading “Claim and Voucher for Refund of Money” may exist regarding this request.
Respectfully Requested,
