PUBLIC RECORDS ACT, G.C. 6250-6268
The California Public Records Act was created to “guarantee access to information concerning
the conduct of the people’s business …a fundamental and necessary right of every person in the
state”. Public records are open to inspection at all times during the office hours of the City and
every person has a right to inspect any public records, except as provided for by law. You have
the right to a copy of any identifiable public record. There may be occasions when it is
impractical to provide an immediate copy; therefore you will be notified of the time delay not to
exceed ten days. If, for some reason, your public records request cannot be granted, you will be
notified within ten days of the receipt of the request.
Copies of public documents shall be provided to the public at a cost of $2.00 for the first page and
20¢ for each additional page up to six pages – if more than six pages, $2.00 for the first page and
80¢ for each ounce.
YOU WILL BE CONTACTED WHEN THE INFORMATION IS READY
