Public Records Request

The City Clerk is the official custodian of records for the City of Rosemead. The City Clerk accepts public records requests and coordinates with the appropriate City departments to make sure all requests are provided to the requestor. In accordance with the California Public Records Act, Govt. Code § 6250 et. seq., the City of Rosemead provides access to public records, except those exempt from disclosure by law. Under Govt. Code § 6253 (e), local agencies are under no obligation to create records that do not already exist at the time of the request. The City has also implemented a citywide Public Records Request Policy to ensure requests are fulfilled in a timely and efficient manner.
