About this guide

Marion County, Oregon, has about 353,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Marion County depends on where the incident happened: the Marion County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Oregon Public Records Law requires of it.

This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Marion County

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.

In Marion County that is the Marion County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.

The FBI's list also places the Marion County State Police in Marion 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 Marion County Liquor Commission (state agency), with a records office of its own.

The Oregon Public Records Law sets the rules: an answer within 15 business days where practicable, after acknowledging the request within 5, at a charge of the actual cost of making the record available, from the agency that holds the report.

Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at co.marion.or.us/BOC/Pages/Public-Records-Requests.aspx (page title: Public Records Requests).

A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, (503) 588-5222, handles discovery for pending cases.
