Public Records Request Office

This web portal will make it easier for you to request public records and communicate with us about the records you are seeking.

Before making an official request we highly recommend browsing our FAQ. Please click the "Make Request" button to submit a New Request to the Public Records Office. 

Note: Be sure you are requesting an identifiable public record. Requests for data, information, or lists do not qualify. Also, state agencies are not required to create records that did not exist at the time the request was submitted.
