Public Records

In response the the Chapo’s request for production of documents, the County attempted to extort several hundred dollars in unwarranted copying fees. As a result, the Chapo’s filed a complaint with the Indiana Public Access Counselor on 12-10-2007

In an informal ruling 1-24-2008, the Counselor determined that the Plan Commission violated the Access to Public Records Act (APRA) by charging an excessive fee for copies of zoning ordinances.

But that’s ok, if the County uses these “unreasonable copying fees” to help settle thier long past due Court ordered settlement to the Chapo family already.
