Question:
What are the responsibilities of the City?
Answer:
Governmental bodies responding to requests have the responsibility to:

Treat all requestors uniformly, and give to the requestor reasonable comfort and facility, including accommodation in accordance with ADA requirements.
Be informed about open records laws and educate employees on the requirements of those laws.
Inform requestors of the estimated charges greater than $40 and any charges in the estimates above 20% of the original estimate, and confirm that the requestor accepts the charges, or has amended the request, in writing before finalizing the request.
Inform the requestor if the information cannot be provided promptly and set a date and time to provide it within a reasonable time.
Request a ruling from the Office of the Attorney General regarding any information the City wishes to withhold, and send a copy of the request for ruling, or a redacted copy, to the requestor.
Segregate public information from information that may be withheld, and provide that public information promptly.
Make a good-faith attempt to inform third parties when their proprietary information is being requested from the governmental body.
Respond in writing to all written communications from the Office of the Attorney General regarding charges for the information. Respond to the Office of the Attorney General regarding complaints about violations of the Act.
