Police Department Public Disclosures
The Bonney Lake Police Department receives requests for a variety of records and information - some of which are maintained by the Police Department, and others which are maintained by other government agencies. This page provides information on how to request records from the Bonney Lake Police.
Processing
If a disclosure request is received during normal business hours, the Bonney Lake Police will provide a response by the 5th business day after receipt. If the request is received when the Police Department offices are closed, the 5-business day response period will start on the next occurring business day. Within 5-business days of the receipt by the Police Department of the request for disclosure, the Public Records Officer or designee shall:
(1) Provide the record, or the portion of the record(s) subject to disclosure, after the payment of applicable fees; or
(2) Acknowledge the Police Department's receipt of the request, accompanied by an estimate of time necessary for further response; or
(3) Deny the request accompanied by an explanation of the basis of denial; or
(4) Request a deposit for the records requested along with an estimate of time necessary to complete the request; or
(5) Ask for clarification of the request for records.
Requests will generally be handled in the order received. However, the Police may handle simple requests first based on our best estimate of how to most expeditiously handle the total number of current requests.
Fees for copies, scanning, postage, delivery, electronic records, and other miscellaneous fees are in the Bonney Lake Municipal Code 3.90.
Deposit and Payment for Duplication
Payment of duplication and applicable postage fees shall be made prior to the disclosure of public records. The Public Records Officer may require the requester to deposit a sum equal to 10% of the estimated cost prior to duplication of the records. In the event that a deposit is required, the Police Department will notify the requester of the necessity of the deposit. If the actual duplication and deposit fees are less than the amount deposited by the requester, the Police Department will return the sum in excess of the actual amount to the requester.
