Requests for public records may be made orally, in person, or in writing (fax, email, letter, by hand). Telephone requests will not be taken. Requests must be made to all three (3) Records Access Officers.
A reasonable description of the document(s) requested should be provided to the RAO’s. Requests must be for records in the possession of the PVPC and must be focused and specific. All requests should include the name of the requestor, contact information such as a mailing address, phone number, and email address. If in writing, the request should be signed and dated.
The requestor will be notified within ten (10) days whether the request seeks copies of disclosable public records in the possession of the PVPC. In most cases, the request will be processed within ten (10) business days.
The PVPC may invoke an extension of time to produce records to comply with a request, if:
- The requested information is located off-site;
- The request involves the examination and reproduction of a voluminous number of records;
- Consultation with another agency, municipality, or branch of government having substantial interest in the request is required.
The PVPC will adhere to the fee schedule allowed by the Commonwealth for complying with public records requests. Currently this is:
- Five (5) cents for black and white prints and/or copies.
- Staff time after the first four (4) hours for compiling, segregating, redacting, and reproducing records. These charges are subject to the approval of the Commonwealth’s Supervisor of Records and cannot exceed $25 per hour or the lowest paid worker with the skills necessary to do such work.
