This email provides an initial response to your Open Records Act request received on June 5, 2023. After reviewing your request, it has been determined this request is slightly broad. While we are able to comply with your open records request as related to your request regarding the documents requested, it may be less costly to you if your request were more specific. It would be helpful if you could answer the following questions so that I can better locate the documents that you would like, thereby reducing your cost:

1. Please confirm whether there is a different company name (besides Elerts) or if there is a contract/PO number that can be provided
2. Would this happen to still be in the solicitation phase?
As provided by O.C.G.A. § 50-18-71, there will be an estimated cost to search, retrieve, copy and supervise access to the requested documents. The fee will includes a charge of $39.02 per hour to cover the administrative costs of assisting you with your request (i.e., staff time searching for, retrieving, and copying the requested documents) as authorized by O.C.G.A. § 50-18-71. This fee will represents the hourly rate of the lowest paid full-time employee with the necessary skill and training to respond to your request. There is no charge for the first fifteen minutes. Should you need copies of any of the requested records, the charge is generally 10¢ per page for letter or legal-sized documents. You will be charged the actual cost of $7.00 for non-standard documents or electronic media. Additionally, higher fees may be charged for certified copies or other specialized records, if provided by law. At this time, there appear to be approximately (1) one non-standard documents and/or electronic media that are subject to release under the open records law. Therefore, the estimated cost for the requested documents is $7.00. While it is the policy of MARTA to provide requested and available documents within three business days of the request, these documents cannot be made available within three business days. An update will be provided upon clarification of this request. If you have any questions or need further information, feel free to contact me directly at 404.848.5220.
