Find that plan!


A FOIA response letter that I've redacted but that nonetheless shows that a school district wanted 12 days to locate a current 5-year comprehensive plan, and planned to charge both a $20.14/hour labor charge AND a $.40/page copy fee. We talked about this at the records-management seminar and concluded: (1) the school district needs better records management if it takes 12 days to find the current 5-year-plan, and (2) they need to rethink their administrative costs if it their actual cost is $.40/page, plus labor (usually if it's a high per page charge, it's because the labor cost is built in -- the actual copying cost is usually much cheaper, like $.10/page in Roanoke).
