The City of Anaheim encourages public participation in the governing process and provides reasonable accessibility to all public records except those documents which are exempt from disclosure by express provisions of law or considered confidential or privileged under the law. The City, in accordance with Goverment Code Section 6256, has ten (10) days to respond to any request for public documents by indicating whether or not the documents exist and will be made available. Actual producton of the documents may take somewhat longer depending upon their ease of availability and staff workload. To assist us in providing a timely response to your request, please fill out the form below and indicate the specific record/document you wish to review.

Once you click on the submit button, a City Clerk staff member will calculate what it will cost to fulfill your request. They will email the price back to you. Then, you will mail in your payment. Once payment has been received, they will process the request and send you the requested documents.

If, after receiving that information, you would like to go forward with the request, please print the Clerk's email to you and mail it in with payment for the full amount to this address: Request for Public Records, c/o Anaheim City Clerk, 200 S. Anaheim Blvd., Anaheim, CA 92805.
