Dear Ms. Lopez,

Thanks for the records but I don't think they fully address my request. The records only provide the salary as of 12/31/2024 as well as the salary on a different, later date. What I requested was a record sufficient to show the TOTAL PAY for each employee during 2024, including things that are paid in addition to salary such as overtime, extra duty pay, etc. Please provide the requested information, thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Charlie Kratovil
