The Village will respond to each written request within five (5) working days after receipt of a non-commercial request.

Fees for additional copying are as follows: black & white copies (letter or legal) - $0.15¢ per page; oversize or color copies – cost of reproduction. If applicable, copies of public records will be provided only upon payment of the required fees. Certain records are exempt from inspection; if a document is exempt, you will be notified.
