  • How to request a public record in Cleveland

    Cleveland, OH

Records are available through three channels: online databases (City Hall legislation, court records, county property data), in-person at City Hall (601 Lakeside Ave.), or by filing a request through the Cleveland Public Records Center, which requires creating an account and specifying a time frame and department. The Cleveland Metropolitan School District maintains a separate public records request system. Effective requests should be specific and time-bound rather than broad.
