I understand that:

My request is limited to the information in existence at the time and on the day my request is received.

The District has no duty to answer questions or create documents to respond to a request pursuant to the

Texas Public Information Act, but if I ask a question, the District will make a diligent effort to determine

whether there is information responsive to my question in its records and respond.

Certain information held by the District may be confidential as a matter of law, or may be excluded from

public disclosure when applying various provisions of the Texas Public Information Act.*

Therefore, to assist in processing your request, please choose Option A or Option B below:

OPTION A - Initial: _________, I hereby agree to limit the scope of my request to only those documents/

information contained in the District’s records that the District believes is non-confidential and available to the

public pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act or any other applicable law. I will accept documents/

information with certain information redacted on this basis and consider my request completely fulfilled. I

understand that if I am not satisfied with the information provided under this basis, that I can make a new re-

quest at any time which includes the redacted information and the District will seek an opinion of the Texas

Attorney General regarding whether the redacted information sought in the new request can be excluded from

public disclosure as explained in Option B.

OPTION B - Initial: _________, I do not agree to limit the scope of my request. I want all available docu-

ments regardless of whether the District considers the information to be confidential or subject to being exclud-

ed. I understand that the District has the duty to seek an opinion from the Texas Attorney General’s Office,

Open Records Division which will consist of the following:

1) A written request for an opinion from the Texas Attorney General by the District within ten (10) business

days (excluding weekends & holidays recognized by the District) from the date that the District receives

my initial request;

2) A written brief sent to the Attorney General’s Office within fifteen (15) days from the date that the District

received my initial request;

3) I might receive a request for clarification of my request if it is vague and ambiguous which will toll

(postpone) the deadline for the District’s request for an opinion from the Texas Attorney General’s Office;

4) A waiting period of up to forty-five (45) days for the Attorney General’s Office to render an opinion from

the date they receive the written brief. I understand that until an opinion is rendered the District cannot

fully respond to my request until a final decision is made by the Texas Attorney General’s Office regarding

my request. I understand that the Texas Attorney General may rule that the information can or cannot be

released and I understand that the District may disagree with the opinion provided by the Texas Attorney

General’s Office. In such cases, the District may seek a decision from a Travis County District Court or

higher court, before records are released.

This is a double sided request form; both sides must be completed (continued on the reverse side).
