Standard Right-to-Know Law Request Form

This form lets people request records from a government agency and provides contact, delivery, and copy preferences for the request.

What this form is

Use this form to request records from an agency, providing details about the subject, time frame, and type of records sought. It asks for your contact information, how you prefer to receive the response, whether you want copies or inspection, and whether you want certified copies. The form says requests must seek records, not answers to questions, and asks you to keep a copy of both pages.

Who needs it

Anyone seeking records from an agency can use this form to describe the records and specify response and copy preferences.

How to submit it

Name the agency and AORO, then submit by email, U.S. mail, fax, or in person; the form also asks you to retain copies of both pages.
