Lassen County Implements CivicPlus’® NextRequest Solution

Lassen County has partnered with CivicPlus to implement its NextRequest solution, a web-based platform designed to simplify and modernize public records management.

The platform enables residents to easily submit public records requests, track their status and access records — ultimately promoting greater transparency and government accountability.

By automating workflows and streamlining request processing, NextRequest makes it faster and easier for staff to respond to requests and honor FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) and state-specific public records laws.

Lassen County’s goal is to make government more accessible, transparent, and responsive to the people we serve. Implementing NextRequest gives our residents an easier way to request public records while helping our staff respond more efficiently and consistently. This investment reflects the County’s ongoing commitment to improving customer service and strengthening public trust through greater transparency.

With CivicPlus’ public records request software, NextRequest, Lassen County will be able to:
• Simplify request management and increase efficiency, ensuring residents can quickly and easily access the information they need.
• Automate tasks to save time with advanced workflow automation, allowing staff to focus on delivering timely, high-quality responses to public records requests.
• Enhance collaboration across departments to provide more accurate and complete records for residents.
• Maximize resources and improve time management, ensuring records requests are handled efficiently, even during high-demand periods.

Residents are encouraged to access the portal directly at lassencounty.nextrequest.com or through lassencounty.gov to learn more about the County’s public records request process and submit a request online.
