Which Agency Holds a Report from Livermore
The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.
Inside Livermore that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Livermore Police Department); outside it, the Alameda County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Highway Patrol's six offices in Alameda County; a report taken on a state highway by one of them comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's agency list also places three other agencies, one state agency and three campus police departments in Alameda County, each with a records office of its own.

What the California Public Records Act Requires
Under the California Public Records Act the agency must answer a request within 10 days, with up to 14 more days in unusual circumstances, and it may charge the direct cost of copying only, not staff time. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at auditor.alamedacountyca.gov/public-records-request (page title: Public Records Request | Alameda County Auditor-Controller/Clerk-Recorder).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney handles discovery for pending cases.
