Good Morning,
I have received the open records request for March 3, 2019. I have a couple questions I would like to ask if someone can give me a call. There is also a $15 open records request fee that payment can be made by check or money order. The payment will need to be made out to Madison County Sheriff's Office. Once payment is received we will mail the requested documents out by USPS.
Thank You,
