Per the California Public Records Act, most governmental records can be viewed by the public upon request. The intention of the Public Records Act is to increase government transperancy. While most records are available to the public, there are some exceptions.

To request a public record, please contact City Clerk Crystal Morrow at (408) 868-1269 or ctclerk@saratoga.ca.us. You can also make a public records request in person at Saratoga City Hall. 

Please include the following information with your request:

• Your name, phone number, and mailing or email address
• Date and time of your request
• A list of the records being requested. Including specific information about the records you are requesting, such as record description, type, date, subject, or title will make it easier for staff to retrieve the requested documents.
