Requests will be fulfilled as soon as practicable and without delay based on the order in which they were received. Under Wisconsin law, a request for access to a public record may not be refused because the person making the request is unwilling to be identified. However, if the request involves restricted record access, we will contact you to obtain proof that you are someone statutorily authorized to obtain the requested record. Due to the high volume of requests, 10 working days is generally a reasonable time for responding to a simple request for a limited number of easily identifiable records. For requests that are broader in scope, or that require location, review, or redaction of many documents, a reasonable time for responding may be longer.

Requests may be made:

Fax Numbers:

  • Evidence: (262) 605–7950
  • Records: (262) 653–6909
  • Communications: (262)653–6927

Completed records requests will be mailed to the requestor, or may be picked in person. We do not fax or email completed requests.
