Anyone can initiate a request to Public Records. It may include a wide variety of documents and materials (including print, photographic, and electronic formats) that were created or obtained by the LADBS.

About the Program

The California State Legislature adopted the Public Records Act in 1968. It is designed to give the public access to information in the possession of public agencies. The Act also provides that public records shall be open for inspection during regular office hours of the agency. The public can inspect or receive a copy of any record unless the record is exempted from disclosure under the act.
