(Fredericksburg, VA) June 12, 2026 – The City of Fredericksburg has launched NextRequest, a new online program designed to enhance the submission and processing of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests.
The online form provides step-by-step guidance to help users submit complete requests and ensures they are routed to the appropriate department for timely review. By offering a centralized platform, NextRequest improves efficiency, supports better tracking of requests, and helps staff respond more effectively.
While the City encourages use of the convenient online system, residents may continue to submit FOIA requests by email, mail, phone, or in person. The new program serves as an additional option intended to make the request process more accessible and user-friendly.
