CITY RECORDS
I. Costs of Locating Documents.
Most of the City’s records are readily available or can be located in a relatively short period of time. There will be no fee imposed for locating a record upon any person who requests a record if the costs of locating the record does not exceed $50.00.
In those cases where a record is not readily available for whatever reason and where it appears that the costs of locating a record will exceed $50.00, the official legal custodians will seek the prior written approval of the requester before proceeding. In addition, the custodians will endeavor, but will not be required, to provide an estimate of the total anticipated costs for locating the record.
The City will determine the cost of locating a record by using the current hourly rate for employees involved in attempting to locate the record.
II. Reproduction Expenses.
1. Costs of copying and reproduction of records where equipment is available.
A. $.25 per page for black and white copies.
B. Additional charge for colored copies.
C. There will be no cost charged for clerical employees’ time in photocopying fewer than 10 copies.
D. If more than 11 pages are to be copied, an hourly charge of $40.00/hour shall be paid in advance by the person making the request on a 1/4 hourly basis.
E. If a requester requests a record which is not a document subject to normal copying (e.g., audio tape, video tape, computer disc, G.I.S. maps, etc.), the requester will be charged an hourly charge of $40.00/hour beyond the first 15 minutes, to be paid in advance, for time expended by City staff in duplicating/reproducing the record.
2. Costs of reproduction of records where equipment is not available within the City.
A. If equipment necessary for any reproduction is not available within the City, the City may rent whatever equipment is necessary to perform the function and will bill the requester for such rental fee. The cost charged will be the actual costs paid by the City to the third party vendor. Items in such a situation would include, but would not be limited to, rental charges for audio or video tape reproduction equipment, microfilm or fiche or ultra fiche reproduction equipment, assorted computer hardware and software.
B. At its option, the City may use an outside vendor to reproduce/duplicate the record. The requester is then charged the actual cost for this service, including any incidental charges such as mailing or delivery charges.
III. Disputes.
1. The official legal custodians of the records of the City shall report any disputes which arise under this fee schedule to the Common Council and shall recommend such modifications and revisions as they deem necessary.
IV. Payment of Fees.
1. The official legal custodians of the records of the City may require the payment of costs provided herein in advance, if exceeding $5.00.
2. The official legal custodians of the records of the City may, in his/her sole discretion, elect to waive the imposition of the costs provided for herein.

Nitrogen greater than 70 mg/l; per pound $1.65

Category B surcharge shall be computed in accordance with the formula presented below:
T = FQ + ((V/1,000) x CV) + ((B x .00834) x CB) + ((S x .00834) x CB) + ((N x .00834) x CN) + ((P x .00834) x Cp)
T = Total Sewer Service Charge
FQ = Fixed Quarterly Charge
B = B.O.D. concentration in mg/l in wastewater above 290 m/l
S = TSS concentration of suspended solids in mg/l in wastewater above 340 mg/l
N = Nitrogen concentration in mg/l in wastewater above 35 mg/l
P = Phosphorus concentration in mg/l in wastewater above 7 mg/l
V = Wastewater volume in 1,000 gallons
CV = Cost per 1,000 gallons
CB = Cost per pound of B.O.D.
CS = Cost per pound of suspended solids
CN = Cost per pound of nitrogen
Cp = Cost per pound of phosphorus
.00834 = Conversion Factor
The above formula shall not be construed to give credits for a waste strength less than domestic concentrations for B.O.D., suspended solids, nitrogen, or phosphorus.
