(April 2025) Request for City of High Point, NC Government: All current employees and salaries. As of present day.

Good afternoon Sandra, Bobby, Angela, Jeron, Adam, (Records Officer / Custodian(s) of these Records),

I reviewed your records request form at https://highpointnc.justfoia.com/Forms/Launch/d705cbd6-1396-49b7-939e-8d86c5a87deb. However, my request literally does not fit into the form, so I cannot submit it to you in your preferred format. Therefore, I’m submitting it to you all directly, as I believe you are the primary custodian(s) of these records, and should now proceed to fulfill the request.

Please reply promptly to the following public records request, which I’m making in accordance with NC Public Records Law. https://www.ncleg.net/enactedlegislation/statutes/html/bychapter/chapter_132.html

The type of basic salary data I’m requesting is simple to provide, is very commonly produced, and is widely considered a matter of public record as part of the public personnel file of employees. Many NC entities fulfill requests like this via email in 1 week, and in many cases 1 day. You’ve also fulfilled this request for me before.

Please provide the names and salaries of all current City of High Point, NC employees as of the present day [on the date the query is performed]. Please include the following:

1) Employee first / last name
2) Date of hire
3) Position / title / department
4) Current salary [please include hourly wage, hourly rate, or annual salary -- whichever payment structure is applicable to the employee]

Ideally, I’d like to receive the responsive records in an Excel or other machine-readable format. If any / all of this info is already publicly available online, please provide a link to where it can be accessed.

** I’m simply requesting an electronic copy of an electronic record, if one exists. I’m NOT asking for the opportunity to come in person to “inspect”, nor to obtain a printed copy of, this electronic record. I’m requesting explicitly that any responsive info be provided to me via the electronic medium / electronic format (in which the copy of this record already exists). If you are unable to fulfill any or all parts of this request, please specifically cite where a reason for denial is justified under NC Public Records Law. **
————————————

Please note that by submitting this request, I’m NOT agreeing to pay any potential fees or associated costs related to my request. If it isn’t possible to process the request without incurring fees, then please let me know the itemized potential cost and clear explanations of those charges upfront, and DO NOT proceed until I respond.

By Law I’m not required to provide a name or address to associate with a public records request. However, in order to move things along I’d like to clarify that this request is being made by:

Sunshine Request
PO Box 17391
Asheville, NC 28816

The request has been sent solely by me and my email address [email protected] . If anyone other than that email address contacts you to pursue a similar request, it did not come from me. Please do not commingle or treat that as an alteration or cancellation of my request – I intend to continue to pursue my request.

Thank you for your assistance!

    Additionally – As I said earlier (4:18pm). I reviewed your records request form (https://highpointnc.justfoia.com/Forms/Launch/d705cbd6-1396-49b7-939e-8d86c5a87deb) prior to submitting my request today.

     

    However, my request literally does not fit into the form, so I cannot submit it to you in your preferred format. By Law, I also don’t have to submit it to you in this way – I can submit to whomever is the custodians(s) of these records and you are obligated to fulfill it.

     

    Please proceed to process my request. I will follow up again in 1 week if I don’t hear back.

     

    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Sandra,

     

    Regarding the PDF you attached.

     

    I don’t know who submitted that request to you today (3 minutes after I emailed you). But, I assure you that it was not sent by me or anyone on my very small team, or our email address ([email protected]). If you read that PDF very closely, you can see that the greeting is not written the same way as the email I sent you.

     

    The last time I submitted any request to High Point, NC was in February 2024, and I did not use the form on your site.

     

    The emailed request (above) has been sent solely by me and my email address [email protected]If anyone other than that email address contacts you to pursue a similar request, it did not come from me. Please do not commingle or treat that as an alteration or cancellation of my request – I intend to continue to pursue my request.

     

    Thank you.
