KANSAS OPEN RECORDS ACT
About KORAThe Kansas Open Records Act (KORA) guarantees any person the right to inspect and obtain copies of all public records, unless the records are closed consistent with specific provisions of law. Within three business days of receipt this agency must either provide records requested; inform the requester when, how and at what cost they will be provided, or state why the records cannot be provided. In some instances, the Garden Plain Police Department may not have the records requested, or may need more than three business days to search.
Certain records are “closed” or restricted in disclosure, to protect confidential information or protect other public interests. When requested records cannot be or are not required to be disclosed, our agency will provide written denial that cites relevant provisions of law.
