Public Records Requests
Public records requests can be made in person, via e-mail, phone or fax and directed to the City Clerk's Office.
City Hall
818 E. Edison Avenue
Sunnyside, WA 98944
(509) 837-3997 Office
(509) 837-3294 Fax
Upon receiving a request for records, the city will respond by either (1) providing the record; (2) acknowledging receipt of the request and providing a reasonable estimate of the time the city will need to respond to the request; or (3) denying the public records request. Additional time may be required to respond to a request because of the need to seek clarification of what information is needed, to locate and assemble the information requested, to notify third parties or agencies affected by the request or to determine whether any of the information requested is exempt and that a denial should be made as to all or part of the request. (RCW 42.56.520)
Once the responsive records have been assembled, you will be notified that the records are available for your review. Copies of records can be requested after the review is completed, or you may request to have copies made without conducting a review of the files. A fee of 15 cents per page (or per side on two-sided copies) is charged for letter-size copies of documents. Copy charges for non-standard pages or other media can be found in the Sunnyside Municipal Code.
Police Records
Requests for Police records should be directed to the Sunnyside Police Department.
