Public Records Requests
Members of the public are welcome to request access to or copies of public records from the Compton Community College District. All requests should be directed to the Office of the President/Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in accordance with AR 3300. To ensure a smooth process, please make requests as far in advance as possible. This allows our staff adequate time to assemble the necessary records and identify any that may be exempt from disclosure.
How to make a request for public records
- Requests should be made by mail or in person to the President/CEO. Send a letter specifying
the type of records you are requesting to:
President/CEO Office
Administration Building
Compton College
1111 E. Artesia Blvd.
Compton, CA 90221
To make an appointment for an in-person request, call 310-900-1600, ext. 2003. - For questions about what records can be requested, contact the Director of Purchasing
and Auxiliary Services, Reuben James, via email rjames@compton.edu or call 310-900-1600, ext. 2110.
- Within (10) ten days of receiving your request, the President/CEO or their designee
will determine whether the records can be produced and will communicate the determination.
The response will indicate if additional time is needed, based on the complexity of
the request and the availability of responsive documents.
- Members of the public will receive assistance in identifying records or information
relevant to their request. This support includes: the information technology and physical
location in which the records exist; practical suggestions for overcoming denial of
access to the records or information; and the estimated date and time for when the
records will be made available.
- If the request requires inspection of documents, the President/CEO or their designee will schedule an appointment with the soonest available time and date.
