What is the cost of paper copies of records?

The fee for copies of printed government records shall not exceed:

  • All pages after 20 $0.25 per page
  • Pages 1 to 10 $0.75 per page
  • Pages 11 to 20 $0.50 per page

If special equipment is needed to make the copies (e.g., for maps), the requester may be charged the actual cost of duplication. Special charges may also be levied for unusual requests or those that require the direct expenditure of funds by the custodian (e.g., for computerized records) to reproduce the records.
