This section is included in your selections.
A. The Act and the Rules shall be interpreted in favor of full disclosure as provided by law.
B. In the event that a request is denied in whole or in part, aggrieved requestors have the following remedies:
1. Administrative review. The Rules shall provide methods for obtaining internal administrative review of public record request denials by City administrators.
2. Judicial Review. Pursuant to RCW 42.56.660, nothing in the Rules shall preclude any requestor from obtaining court review of denials at the conclusion of two business days after the City’s initial denial, regardless of any administrative appeals that the requestor might have made to the City itself for internal review.
