The City of Seattle has agreed to pay $200,000 to settle a Public Records Act lawsuit filed by the Seattle Times over former Mayor Jenny Durkan’s missing text messages and other PRA-related issues.
“One was how the city’s police force was dealing with protesters on the streets and whether they were using force appropriately or limiting the use of their force appropriately. The other was trying to find out who was making decisions both tactical and strategic about the CHOP protest zone,” she added.
Eventually, the Times felt it was dealing with some “pretty flagrant” violations of the State Public Records Act. “While the city would not concede to the way I phrased it in terms of flagrant violations, they, in fact, say that they don’t have liability for these things. But they did acknowledge that they need to put better procedures into place. To me that says a lot to those of us at the Times, that says a lot” said Flores.
The city also agreed to no longer unreasonably delay releasing records because of some internal review processes.
