How soon will I receive a response to my request from the Police Department?

The Public Records Act requires a prompt response to requests for access to records, usually within ten days of the request. Within the first ten days following receipt of a public records request, the Chino Police Department will determine if the Department has records that are responsive to the request, and whether the information is disclosable. The Department will then notify the requester of the determination and provide an estimated date by which the records will be provided. In some circumstances, the 10-day time limit for this notification may be extended up to an additional fourteen days by written notice to the requester.
