Under the Indiana Access to Public Records Act, agencies must acknowledge an emailed request within seven days of its receipt but are not required to provide records within that time period. This email serves as acknowledgment of your request within the legally mandated timeframe under Indiana Code § 5-14-3-9.
As we currently have several other open APRA requests at this time, we appreciate your patience in advance as we work to complete your request. Once we begin to review our records for relevant documents, we will contact you if we require additional information or clarification.
Indiana Code § 5-14-3-8(b) provides for a copy charge of ten cents ($0.10) per standard sized (8 ½" x 11") pages copied, fifty cents ($0.50) per ledger sized (11" x 17") pages, and $1.00 for plan sized (24" x 36") pages copied. Once we know what records are available in response to your request, we will notify you of any charges prior to sending you the records.

Sincerely,
Jeni O'Malley
