Notice COVID-19

On March 24, 2020, Governor Inslee issued Proclamation 20-28 excusing public agencies from responding to public records requests within 5 business days, which is otherwise required by RCW 42.56.520(1). Pend Oreille County is making every effort to continue providing a response to any new public records request within the 5-day period. However, because staff are reduced and/or working remotely, there may be delays in providing you with an initial response to your public records request. In addition, many offices are currently closed to the public, including in-person public records requests or inspection. We appreciate your understanding.
