    Good afternoon City of Asheville Public Records,

     

    I am following up a fourth time on this already completed request: https://cityofashevillenc.nextrequest.com/requests/21-92

     

    Upon further review I can see that all communications we’ve received and sent have not been publicly published on Next Request by default, and it shows a message that says “Access to this request is currently limited.” We’re asking that you please make this request “public / published” on NextRequest in its entirety, so that the public can view the results and all documents there in addition to our site.

     

    Thank you!

    Hello,

     

    The Asheville Police Department does not have a departmental policy regarding employment of spouses but follows the City of Asheville’s policy regarding Nepotism. The policy is available for your review.

     

    Thanks,
    Leslie
