Concord Police Records Bureau

The Concord Police Department has a Records Bureau that handles public requests for arrest and booking records. You can reach them at (925) 671-3240. The Records Bureau processes requests for copies of arrest reports, incident reports, and other booking-related documents created by Concord Police officers. Walk-in requests are accepted at the police station during business hours.

California law under Government Code Section 7923.610 requires the Concord Police to share booking information with anyone who asks. The required data includes the person's name, physical description, date and time of arrest, location of the arrest, all charges, bail amount, and whether the person was released or is still in custody. None of this is optional. The Concord Police must provide it as part of their legal obligation under the California Public Records Act.

For formal written requests, Concord uses LexisNexis CrashDocs for traffic collision reports, but general arrest records go through the standard public records process. You write a request describing what you need, and the city responds within 10 days. The California DOJ's public records page explains how this timeline works and what to do if an agency does not respond on time.

Concord Booking Record Details

A Concord 24 hour booking record contains the same types of information you would find in any California booking log. The county database shows the booking number, charges, bail, and current custody status. The Concord Police arrest report adds more detail, including the circumstances of the arrest, the officers involved, and any witness or victim information that can be released under the law.

Under Government Code Section 7923.615, complaint information tied to an arrest can also be released. This includes the date, time, and location of the incident, the nature of the police response, and a general description of what happened. Concord booking records often include this context, especially when the arrest report is requested along with the booking data.

Sealed Records in Concord

A person arrested in Concord who is never convicted can petition to have their booking record sealed. Penal Code Section 851.91 allows this. The petition goes to the Contra Costa County Superior Court. If granted, the Concord booking entry gets pulled from public databases and will not show up in the county in-custody search or through a records request.

Note: Sealed records are invisible to public search tools, so a missing record may mean it was sealed by the court.
