summary

This amendment requires an agency or official to acknowledge a request to inspect or copy public records within 5 working days of receiving the request. Within a reasonable time of receiving the request, the agency or official must give a good faith, nonbinding estimate of the time to comply with the request and must also provide the cost estimate as required in current law.

This amendment deletes the proposed requirement that the agency or official responding to a request explain costs and the statutes requiring redaction. It also deletes the changes to attorney's fees.
