Subject: my reply tonight to the City of Austin Fw: [Austin Public Records Center] :: R042441-080320

A friendly FYI to each of you government officials, law-enforcement officers, religious leaders, and civic leaders on the e-mail reply note (below) I received yesterday from the City of Austin in response to a question I had respectfully posed to the APD Open Records Unit yesterday. My question had been in regard to APD's response to my August 3, 2020, online public-information request (final item, below):

Mr. John Kevin McMillan, 
 
The document provided (the June 16, 2020, e-mail letter to you from Roberto Aranda of the APD Special Investigations Unit) is the only thing responsive to this (your August 3, 2020, online public-information) request. This request has been completed and is closed. 
 
Respectfully, 
 
Open Records 
_____________

For the record, the full verbatim text of the above-cited June 16, 2020, reply e-mail letter to me from senior staff member Roberto Aranda of the APD Special Investigations Unit (SIU) that I received a copy of yesterday from APD is provided immediately below. (That same legal document was previously provided to me by APD in response to my July 29, 2020, online public-information request to APD---an online request from me that I now realize, upon further review, had, in fact, included APD SIU phone messages as well as APD SIU written messages in the scope of that public-information request focused on myself.)

From: Aranda, Roberto
To: John McMillan 
Subject: Electronic Correspondence to SIU
Date: Tuesday, June 16, 2020 08:06:00 

Good morning Mr. McMillan -- 
I received approximately 76 emails from you since our phone conversation on June 12, 2020. Due to the volume of the communications, in conjunction with our limited resources due to the current events related to the Covid-19 pandemic and public protests, I am writing this message to respectfully request that you refrain from sending any additional emails at this time. To be forthright, the quantity received thus far is more than plenty and it is imperative that my limited capacity be not overwhelmed. 

As a friendly reminder, the scope of the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) is to investigate criminal incidents which meet particular criteria which includes, but is not limited to: crimes committed by any sworn officer(s) or City of Austin employees where the offense has occurred within the APD jurisdiction. Therefore, should a determination be made that any of these leads evolve into a need for more information, you will be contacted accordingly. 

Kind regards, 
Roberto Aranda 
Administrative Senior 
City of Austin – Austin Police Department

Dear Austin (TX) Police Department Open Records Unit Staff Members,

Thank you for your e-mail reply on this.

Please verify for me in writing at your earliest convenience whether the only legal document you sent to me in response to the August 3, 2020, online public-information request (below) from me was the June 16, 2020, e-mail letter to me from senior staff member Roberto Aranda of the APD Special Investigations Unit. 

I am referring to the e-mail letter from Mr. Aranda in which he stated to me in writing: 
"...As a friendly reminder, the scope of the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) is to investigate criminal incidents which meet particular criteria which includes, but is not limited to: crimes committed by any sworn officer(s) or City of Austin employees where the offense has occurred within the APD jurisdiction. Therefore, should a determination be made that any of these leads evolve into a need for more information, you will be contacted accordingly."

If you had intended to send me one or more additional legal documents responsive to my August 3 public-information request, please send them to me at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,
public-information requestor and longstanding criminal-law complainant John Kevin McMillan in APD Sex Crimes Unit Case 16-1340923. 
That particular APD case dates back to the year 2016, when I resided with a strictly-platonic and polite Anglo male adult roommate, Brett Andrew Meyer, as my only roommate in the two-bedroom Apartment 902 in Building 9 at Village Oaks Apartments. Village Oaks is a Northland-owned and Northland-managed apartment complex at 10926 Jollyville Road in northwest Austin, with Northland maintaining their corporate headquarters offices in Newton, Massachusetts.
My home address ever since June 21, 2019:
Pebble Creek Apartments, 8805 North Plaza Drive, Apt. 2418 (a second-floor, eastside solo-occupancy efficiency-apartment unit in Building 17, situated in the northeastern corner of this very large and gated-community apartment complex), Austin, TX 78753.
Home phone: (512) 342-2295.
Cell phone: (512) 993-7305.

Re: Public Information Request of August 03, 2020, Reference # R042441-080320;

Dear Mr. John Kevin McMillan,

The Austin Police Department received a Public Information request from you on August 03, 2020, to request copies of records pertaining to the following:

Included in the scope of this public-information request are any legal notes that were written by Mr. Roberto Aranda, a polite staff member and administrative-contact person for your APD Special Investigations Unit, in regard to or in response to the phone call that Mr. Aranda from his APD office made to me inside my fully-bolt-locked solo-occupancy efficiency apartment unit at about 9:20 a.m. Friday, June 12, 2020.
During that phone call, Mr. Aranda authorized me to directly send to him e-mails referring by name to a variety of peace officers and government officials based in Travis County, Texas, in regard to whom I personally question their level of compliance with the law in one or more aspects of their own conduct relating to myself.
My legal name is "John Kevin McMillan". My date of birth is: April 27, 1957. I am a native of Lincoln, Nebraska.
My e-mail address and personal phone numbers have remained the same throughout the entire period ever since January 1, 2020:
