special service charge for the labor needed to respond to this request.
To produce the documents that you have requested, the Town of Gulf Stream estimates the need

the service, per Fla. Stat. § 119.07(4)(d). If the costs of producing these documents will exceed
your deposit, the Town will provide you with an initial production of responsive records and an
estimate for the production of any additional responsive records. If the costs of production are
less than the deposit, the Town will provide you with the responsive records and a refund.
(5 hours @ 36.39 = 181.95) - (.25 hour @ 36.39= 9.10) = Deposit Due: $172.85 in cash or

Should you not want all records requests, we have attached a deposit estimate for each
request individually.
