Public Information Act 

The Public Information Act provides the public the right to request access to city records either for public inspection or to obtain copies (fee applies).   

A municipality must make a good faith effort to provide access or copies of requested city records in a "prompt" manner.  The Act states "promptly means that a governmental body may take a reasonable amount of time to produce the information, but may not delay."

A governmental body is not required to create new information, do legal research or answer questions. A governmental body is only required to provide access or copies of city records that are already in existence.
