I understand that there is no charge for inspecting a record. The details of these statutory requirements are found in Chapter 63-2, Utah Code. The provisions of the Government Records Access and Management Act are lengthy and complicated. This summary is meant to provide some highlights.
Every person is entitled to review and obtain copies of any public document.
Records can be inspected free of charge. A reasonable charge can be assessed for copies if that charge is adopted by official policy. The actual cost to compile a record in a form other than that normally maintained may be charged. No charge can be assessed for the time taken to review a record to determine if it is public or for inspecting the record. No charge is to be made if the record directly relates to a persons legal rights and that person cannot afford to pay the fee.
