Public Records Request for NOFARS at dos.fl.gov results "There is NO RECORDS"
Dear requestor,
The Florida Department of State does not have records responsive to your public records request. The Department of State is a state agency with jurisdiction limited to the areas set forth by the Florida Legislature (elections, libraries, historical resources, corporations, arts and culture). The Department of State does not have any authority relating to the topic of your request. You may wish to speak with local officials or those that you reference in your email, or perhaps, the Florida Department of Revenue: Florida Dept. of Revenue - Florida Dept. of Revenue
Because you have not requested records that the Department of State has, the Department of State now considers this request closed. It has been a pleasure to be of service to you.
Best,
Office of the General Counsel, Public Records

Hi,
My name is Daniel Lewis, and I have been trying to find some information on a nonprofit organization that I am a member of and seem to be having a hard time finding any information on the club.
The organization name is North Florida Amateur Radio Society (NOFARS) and the EIN number is 59-1795238. The President John Reynolds keeps stating they are a 501 C4 non-profit
Organization .
Who or what dept. of the state would I need to talk with to get or find these answers? I have looked everywhere and even searched on sunbiz.org with no results other than document number 705639 dated back to 1974.
