  Good Afternoon,

  I have followed up on your request and we are in receipt of your response to not narrow your search criteria. As stated earlier, Based on the search criteria, over a thousand emails were returned. Based on the parties involved and the likelihood of the results containing personnel related information, it will require legal review of all records prior to release. Records will be released when the review is complete.

  Best Regards,

   

  Beth M. Mull

  Good evening Records, Beth, Rodney, Sandra,

   

  On July 19 I submitted a public records request # R000141-071924 to the County via your records portal. On July 26 I received the following message:

   

  “Further clarification is required to complete your request:

   

  Iredell County is in receipt of your request. Based on the search criteria, over a thousand emails were returned. Based on the parties involved and the likelihood of the results containing personnel related information, it will require legal review of all records prior to release. If you wish to narrow the scope by adding key words that will assist in expediting the review, please provide them.

   

  Please respond to this email with the details requested above.

   

  Upon receipt of clarification, Iredell County, NC will further respond to your public records request as required by law.

   

  For questions or additional information, please reply to this email.”

   

  On July 29 I replied to clarify — “No, I would not like to narrow my request. There are no keywords or subject matter criteria I wish to provide. Please proceed with the request as written.”

   

  I did not hear back, so I followed up on August 06 to confirm my message was received “… and to confirm that you’re continuing to process my request without delay? If possible, can you please provide an anticipated timeline for the request’s completion? (whether that’s in weeks, months, etc.)”.

   

  I did not hear back, so I followed again on August 13.

   

  As of this writing, I still have not heard back. Therefore, I’m now emailing you all (as you are the custodians of the records I requested), to confirm my request is being processed without delay, and to ask that you please provide an anticipated timeline or date for the request’s completion.

   

  Having made all reasonable attempts to follow up, and having received no response in almost a month – if I don’t hear back in 1 week, I will mark this request as having been “Denied” by the County.

   

  Thank you for your help!

  Good afternoon ICNC Public Records,

   

  This is my 3rd attempt to follow up with you since 07/29 regarding my records request # R000141-071924. I have not received any response.

   

  To reiterate –
  No, I would not like to narrow my request, and there are no keywords or subject matter criteria I wish to provide.

   

  Please confirm that you’ve been continuing to process my request as written, without delay — and, please provide an anticipated timeline for the request’s completion (whether that’s in weeks, months, etc.)

   

  I will make one more attempt to follow up with you in 1 week, if I do not hear back before then.

  ** 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. **
