All requests received after normal business hours (excluding holidays) shall be deemed received the next business day.

NOTICE TO REQUESTER
Estimate and Payment of Fees: Idaho Code Section 74-102 (12) provides: In the event the City Clerk, as the custodian of the records, in the process of this request determines that completing this request is likely to involve the production of more than 100 copies, or involve more than 2 hours of staff time, and/or will involve legal advice for review and redaction, the Clerk will estimate those fees and provide written notice to the Requester requiring advance payment of those estimated fees. Only in the event the estimated fees are then paid will the City Clerk proceed with the response to the Request. Estimated fees received will be credited to the Requester’s account. Any portion of an advance payment of fees by the Requester, in excess of the actual costs incurred in responding to the request, will be returned to the Requester.
In the event the Clerk provides written notice to the Requester requiring advance payment of estimated fees this request will not be considered received until advanced payment of estimated fees has been made by the requester.

I am NOT claiming exemption.

I am claiming an exemption based on the following.

*Is likely to contribute significantly to the public's understanding of the operations or activities of the government; and*Is not primarily in the individual interest of the requester including, but not limited to, the requester's interest in litigation in which the requester is or may become a party; and*Would not otherwise occur because the requester has insufficient financial resources to pay such fees.

If yes to the exemption: Set out your factual basis, addressing all three above stated requirements, demonstrating a basis for the claim of exemption and attach to Public Records Request.
