The Complainant alleged the City violated the APRA when it failed to respond to her APRA request within ten (10) business days. The City stated that the Complainant's APRA request went to its legal counsel's SPAM (junk mail) folder, but did not dispute the Complainant's contention that the City failed to timely respond to her request. Accordingly, we found that the City violated the APRA by failing to timely respond to the request. The submissions received by this Office indicate that the City subsequently provided the Complainant with responsive documents; therefore, we do not find injunctive relief to be appropriate at this time. This Office also did not find evidence that the instant violation rose to the level of willful and knowing, or alternatively reckless. VIOLATION FOUND.
