Public Records

The California State Legislature adopted the Public Records Act in 1975. It is designed to give the public access to information in possession of public agencies. 

Prior to submitting a Public Records Act Request, please note the following:

  • Property records are maintained by the Community Development Department and are available for public review during business hours by appointment. To learn more or to make an appointment, visit the Community Development Department's Property Records page
  • Vital documents (birth, death, and marriage certificates) and recorded documents are maintained by the Marin County Recorder's Office. The Recorder's Office is located at the Marin County Civic Center (3501 Civic Center Drive, San Rafael, CA 94903).
