The Fremont County Commissioners handled a brief agenda of business for the November 26th regular meeting. Adoption of a resolution setting new photocopy fees at the Fremont County Clerk and Recorder's Office highlighted the day's agenda.
A new law passed during the 2007 session of the Legislature limited photocopy fees by state and local government to 25 cents for a standard page unless higher fees were supported by research showing higher actual costs associated with making copies. The fee schedule adopted by the Commissioners is based on a study performed by Public Research Management Group which examined time spent on researching historic records by the Clerk's staff to produce those copies. The Clerk's new fee schedule keeps the cost for standard pages at 25 cents each for electronic documents, $1.25 per page for documents requiring physical research of records, and $5 per page for maps and other oversized documents. Additionally, records requiring staff research to locate documents or requiring more than one hour will incur a $23.31 hourly charge.
The Commissioners also reappointed Barbara Carochi, Virginia Haynes, Ralph Kunselman, and Buddy Nichols to the Fremont County Fairboard and newly appointed Barry Acton of Florence to the Fairboard.
In the only other business the Commissioners approved a request for a six month extension of a three lot minor subdivision for Kurtis and Trudy Zerby northeast of the intersection of Field and Melvina Avenues north of Canon City.
