General Public Records Request

The City Clerk’s Office is responsible for processing most of the City’s public records requests. The City of Douglas will release available records as provided for under Wyoming State Statutes. Requests will be processed as soon as possible. Please keep in mind that some large requests may take extensive amounts of staff time to complete. In these cases, either the City Clerk or Municipal Court Clerk will be in contact with the requester about anticipated completion dates. Some records are not releasable or are only releasable with redactions. In these instances, a written explanation will be provided to the requester as to why records have been withheld or redacted. Some requests may incur fees, which are outlined in the link below.
