If making a request for any document and/or record from the records department, it must be made to the “Records Custodians” of our agency.
This can be be done by emailing us or by coming into our office at 110 2nd Street NE, Suite 200, East Wenatchee, WA, during normal business hours.
Requests made to anyone other than the "Records Custodians" will not comply with the statutory requirements of the Public Records Act, RCW 42.56.520
