How to Request Data?

You can request data by completing and submitting our Data Request Form online.

If you would prefer, a downloadable form can also be emailed to you or a paper copy of the form can be picked up at New Brighton City Hall or mailed to you.

If you choose not use to use the Data Request Form, your request should include:

  • You are making a request for public data under the Government Data Practices Act (Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 13).
  • Whether you would like to inspect the data, have copies of the data, or both.
  • A clear description of the data you would like to inspect or have copied.

You are not required to identify yourself or explain the reason for your data request. However, depending on how you want us to process your request (if, for example, you want us to mail you copies of data), we may need some information about you. If you choose not to give us any identifying information, you will need to contact us to check on the status of your request. In addition, please keep in mind that if we do not understand your request and have no way to contact you, we will not be able to begin processing your request.
