Records must be requested from the Department that holds the record.
The Island County Public Records Disclosure Contact Sheet identifies records held by each department in Island County and the corresponding Records Officer for that particular record type. The department that holds the record is the only department that can ensure you receive the latest version of that record.
Each Department has their own records process, please contact them directly.
Changes to Public Records Disclosure Requirements Due to Governor Inslee's Proclamation & Covid-19 Response19-JAN-2021: EXTENSION OF PROCLAMATION 20-28
On January 19, 2021, the state legislature, approved Senate Concurrent Resolution 8402 to extend Proclamation 20-28 until the termination of the COVID-19 state of emergency pursuant to RCW 43.06.210, or until rescinded by gubernatorial or legislative action, whichever occurs first.
- The requirement that agencies respond to PRA requests within 5 business days is suspended only for requests not received electronically until the termination of the COVID-19 state of emergency or until rescinded by gubernatorial or legislative action, whichever occurs first. Public records requests received electronically will receive an initial response within 5 business days. Records production in response to requests may be delayed. Each County department and office will make a good faith effort to communicate with records requestors in a timely manner as staffing availability and workloads allow during the COVID-19 Emergency.
- All in-person business pertaining to requests for records is suspended, including: making a public records request in person, onsite inspection or copying of records, and picking up records onsite until the termination of the COVID-19 state of emergency or until rescinded by gubernatorial or legislative action, whichever occurs first.
