This Is Not a Government Office or Records Custodian. This private reference cannot retrieve or certify records, verify present occupancy, or change information held in a public roll. Direct those matters to the custodian. For an emergency, call 911. Contact local police if you are being stalked or harassed.

For city-held public records, start with The Colony Public Records. The page provides Document Archives, a PDF request, JustFOIA, and mail, in-person, fax, and e-mail submission routes. Request existing identifiable records rather than an answer or a new report. The city states that it will contact the requestor within ten business days when more time is needed.
