Email

We have been receiving emails from your company over the past couple of years. Our City Attorney has responded to your company once. We're not going to be able to assist you until you meet the listed requirements. Please stop sending us fax messages. Thank you for your cooperation!

Your request for access to public records is denied because your request indicates that you reside out-of-state. §36-12-40, Code of Alabama, provides citizens of Alabama the right to view public records with some exceptions. The Alabama Public Records Act is available only to Alabama citizens and grants no right of inspection to non-Alabamians. See McBurney v. Young, 133 S. Ct. 1709 (2013) and opinion to Honorable Howard J. Verner, Coffee County Constable, A.G. No 2018-030. Please provide documentation as to your Alabama residency. This may be accomplished by providing a copy of your current driver's license or other documentation showing your Alabama residence.

If you are able to prove that you're an Alabama resident, the below information will be how you would submit a request.

Please make your records request through our website.

Public Records Request
The City Clerk's office asks that you make a Public Records Request through the online system. If you have trouble with the online process or have questions, call 334-705-5110 or email rjones@opelika-al.gov.
The Alabama Supreme Court has held that a city may require a person making access to public records to fill out an application and give a reason for seeking the record. In addition, a municipality may set reasonable restrictions on the time and place of inspection. A municipality has the right to charge a reasonable fee for making copies of the record. By submitting a request, I understand that there may be fees associated with this request.
