The stated charge of $95.60 seems excessive to query a payroll database for information pertinent to a segment of government workers. I looked at the 2023 recommended budget for St. Louis County and found relevant information that will reduce research time and hopefully the costs associated with this request. Would you kindly recalculate the charges related to this request for records?

Pursuant to the Missouri Sunshine Law, please provide the names of all current employees, the position (job title) currently held, the current hourly rate of pay, the current annualized salary, and the date of hire for all personnel currently employed by the Park Ranger Division of the St. Louis County Parks Department
FUND: PARK MAINTENANCE (1050)
DEPARTMENT/OFFICE: PARKS AND RECREATION (3600)
DIVISION: PARKS RANGERS (3640)

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 3 business days, as the statute requires.
