I.PURPOSE: The purpose of this general order is to establish policy and procedures for charging of fees for duplication and research as requested by the public.
II.POLICY: It is the policy of Monroe County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) that minimal fees be charged the requesting public for duplication of documents, video/audio recordings and for research requested by the public and that the fees are consistent throughout the agency.
III.DISCUSSION: Individuals routinely request copies of reports, documents, video/audio recordings, as well as, research to be done on subject matter the Office may have data on.
