Publisher: MuckRock
Relevant To: Public records request tracking tool for Bend/Deschutes County
Verification Status: Needs Review — Page Bot-Blocked, Platform Confirmed Legitimate

Notes: Could not fetch page directly (bot-blocked). Confirmed via search that MuckRock is a legitimate, well-established national platform for filing and tracking public records requests, with dedicated per-jurisdiction “place” pages (confirmed pattern via /oregon/ and /oregon/north-bend/ pages) that typically list public records requests filed with local agencies, their status, and released documents. Could not independently verify the specific content/requests currently listed on the Bend, OR page without direct access. Likely a practical tool for BPA — both for finding existing PRA requests filed with Bend-area agencies (police, city, county) by other requesters, and as a platform Jonathan could use to file and publicly track his own PRA requests. Recommend Jonathan visit directly to confirm what’s currently listed; flagging as Needs Review for a follow-up screenshot rather than guessing at specific content.
