Good afternoon Gordon, Suzanne, Tanya, Susan, David, Permitting, (Records Officer / Custodian(s) of these Records),
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
I attempted to submit my request through your online records form. However, my request does not fit the character limit of the “Request” section of your form, and 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.
All of the items requested below are related to Parcel # 15600025, and all of the responsive records for each item should include the specific time period of 05/22/2024 through 12/31/2024. Please provide the following:
A. The electronic copy of all permits requested, and all permits granted. This should also include tree survey.
B. Please indicate whether the City of Boiling Spring Lakes approved a clear cutting of trees on Parcel # 15600025 with Parcel # 15600118. If clear cutting was not approved, please provide any actions taken by the City of Boiling Spring Lakes.
** 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. **

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, but in order to move things along I’d like to clarify that this request is being made by:

I’m sorry we did not issue any permits for clear cutting on parcel # 15600025 and there has been no action taken by the City regarding that parcel #. Are you specifically looking for information on what permits were issued for parcel # 15600118?
