WA AG proposes faster public records response times, sparking debate over feasibility.
Washington Attorney General Nick Brown has proposed new nonbinding guidelines to speed up public records responses, urging agencies to release simple requests within five business days and raising the bar for third-party notices.
The changes, prompted by rising request volumes and delays in critical records, aim to improve transparency amid criticism of backlogs.
While open government advocates support the move, local officials warn the rules may impose unworkable burdens and rely on vague standards, urging legislative action instead.
Public feedback is due by November 17.
