SPOKANE COUNTY · PUBLIC-RECORDS TRANSPARENCY GRADE
A
22/24
Spokane County gets an A.
Washington has the strongest combination graded so far in the West: 5-day PRA clock with attorney-fee enforcement, free statewide MyCase court search, mandatory e-filing, free electronic delivery, public booking photos, and WATCH for criminal history. The Public Records Act puts the burden on agencies, not requesters. Rare combination.
Note: Statewide grade applies — no separate local grade yet computed for Spokane County.
