City of Socorro Fails to Comply With Open Records Request.

I made an Open Records Request with Sandra Hernandez of the City of Socorro.

She is the City Clerk. I made two requests. One requesting the video surveillance of the administration building. Since the public funds that system, I didn't think it was out of line to request the footage. I was looking for it because I saw Jesse Gandara go into the building with his cousin and I wanted everyone to see that they are aligned with one another.

I also made a request for the policy regarding signing in to the building. Gandrara just walks in like he owns the place. We the common folk, have to sign in. I wanted to see what the city's policy had to say about that.

The City has UP TO 10 days to respond to the request. It's been more than 10 days and I have received no answer from the City. Not even a denial of the request.

I called the office two days ago to see what the status of my request was and I still haven't received an answer.

Socorro needs to tighten up the screws... The public should not have to face difficulties in making requests.
