FOIA Request to Denver Police Department regarding active employee roster on November 13, 2025.
A request for public records was submitted to the Denver Police Department under the Colorado Open Records Act by Centennial State News. The request seeks access to various documents that identify all current employees of the department. Specifically, the request asks for any roster, directory, staffing list, payroll record, or personnel summary that includes details such as the name, job title or rank, sex or gender (if available), date of hire or appointment, and age or year of birth (if included in existing public-facing records) for each employee.
The request also specifies a preference for receiving this information in electronic format. If multiple versions of these rosters exist—such as HR rosters, payroll rosters, sworn-officer rosters, and civilian-staff rosters—the most recent version of each is requested.
Centennial State News emphasizes its role in gathering and reporting news to the public and highlights its commitment to holding public institutions accountable while providing transparency. The organization has requested a fee waiver based on its status as a media professional entity.
The requestor is affiliated with The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy, a non-profit organization that assists media companies and advocacy groups in investigating governmental agencies using Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws.
