Which Agency Holds a Report from Milwaukie
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 Milwaukie that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Milwaukie Police Department); outside it, the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Clackamas County State Police in Clackamas County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries the Clackamas County Liquor Commission (state agency), with a records office of its own.
The Tualatin Police Department and the Portland Police Department are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Clackamas County, so their arrests are not broken out for Clackamas County here.

What the Oregon Public Records Law Requires
Under the Oregon Public Records Law the agency must answer a request within 15 business days where practicable, after acknowledging the request within 5, and it may charge the actual cost of making the record available. 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 clackamas.us/rm/policy.html (page title: Requesting Public Records | Clackamas County).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, 503-655-8431, handles discovery for pending cases.
