Can I stop by the District’s office during regular business hours to inspect the public records I am interested in?

Advance notice is not required to inspect public records; however it is recommended that you contact the District’s Records Manager in advance to schedule an appointment. Please keep in mind that requests to inspect records are subject to a rule of reason and must be consistent with the efficient functioning of the District’s offices. Failure to make an appointment in advance may result in a delay while the records are being located and reviewed. There is no charge to inspect records. However, in order to prevent records from being lost, damaged or destroyed during inspection, District staff may determine the location of and monitor the inspection.

How do I request access to or copies of Statements of Economic Interest (Form 700) for the Board of Directors of District staff?

At this time, the Clerk of the Orange County Board of Supervisors (COB) serves as the filing officer for the District for the Board of Directors and other specifically designated positions with the exception of Consultants. Most all filings are submitted electronically to the COB using the County’s eDisclosure system. However, the District does maintain a courtesy copy of these filings for the public’s convenience. Appointments to review and/or obtain copies of Form 700 filings during regular business hours are not required but contacting the District’s Records Manager in advance will help expedite your request.
