In accordance with the General Provisions Article, Title 4, Public Information Act, § 4-203, Annotated Code of Maryland, the information will be provided within the timelines prescribed by law. Please understand that law does not require a public agency to create documents. In addition, the custodian of record may charge an applicant a reasonable fee for the search for, preparation of, and reproduction of a public record after the first two hours of employee time that is needed to retrieve the requested information. Our policy is to provide the first five pages at no charge, with $.20 per page charged beyond the fifth page. We may also charge for postage or special delivery costs if applicable.
