CORA Requests
The Colorado Open Records Act "CORA" requires that most public records be available to the public. A "public record" includes most writings made, maintained, or kept by our office. However, there are some exceptions concerning records made available under CORA.
Anyone can request public records in the possession of a government office. A person must request records directly from the appropriate government office or the custodian of the records (per the Colorado Secretary of State's office).
