Request public records
Looking for City documents but can't find them with a portland.gov or Efiles record search? Submit a public record request online through the Portland Public Records Center - the online system that helps the city respond quickly and coordinate requests involving multiple bureaus. If you're a journalist working with a public information officer, let them know about your records request so the city can make every effort to meet your deadline.
