Request Records under the Colorado Open Records Act

The majority of the City's records are subject to release under the Colorado Open Records Act. However, not all records can be searched for and found via the above public access portals. Records that are not available via these public search portals may be requested by completing the online Open Records Request Form.  This form is automatically routed to the City Clerk's Office. Once received, the City Clerk's Office will reach out to you to either provide you the records you have requested, to confirm the scope of the request, or to provide you a cost to produce the documents requested.

If you prefer, you may also download the paper Open Records Request Form, complete it, and submit it to the City Clerk's Office in person at 350 Kimbark St., Longmont, CO 80501 or email it to City Clerk's Staff.

All Open Records Requests are fulfilled in accordance with the City's Records Cost Policy.
