Public Information Act Requests

How To Request Public Information

Your request must be in writing and addressed to the JISD Communications Department. Only written submissions trigger a request under the Public Information Act. Requests made by facsimile or electronic mail must be addressed to the Department of Communications. (electronic submissions go directly to Communications Director) 

• Provide your full name and contact information including email/or fax (if available). 
• Provide a heading for your submission that reads “Public Information Request.”
• Provide a detailed, precise description of the nature and scope of information you are seeking.
• Requests should be for documents or other information that is already in existence. JISD should not be expected to create new documents as a result of a request.

Governmental bodies are not required to answer questions, perform legal research, or comply with a continuing request to supply information on a periodic basis in the future.

Please keep in mind that requests for these records are for existing documents.
