Copies of documents provided by a routine file search of 15-20 minutes or less will be charged at a copy rate established in the annual fee resolution. In accordance with Oregon Public Records Law (ORS 192.324-192.440), and to promote efficiency and cost recovery, requests submitted by the same requester within 15 calendar days of a prior request will be considered a single request for the purpose of calculating research fees.
