Dear James Baker [mail to: jamesbakerrecordmaker Ovanail.coml,
The Town of Gulf Stream received your public records requests on December 16, 2014. You
should be able to view your original requests at the following links http://www2.gulf-
stream.ore/WebLink8 /0 /doe /31550 /Pagel.asox. If your request was verbal, then the description
of your public records request is set forth in the italics above. In future correspondence, please
refer to this public records request by the above referenced numbers.
Please note that the recording is available online by going to www.eulf- stream.org, click on "I
Want To... ", click on "Find a Town Record ", click on "Public Records Requests ", click on "2014 ",
click on "Public Records Requests 2014 ", click on "PRR 14- 1667.01 ".
If you should still desire the copy of the cassette tape and compact disc of the recording, the
Town may incur expenses for the production of documents. You are responsible for the costs of
duplication, as allowed by Chapter 119, Florida Statutes, and you may also incur a 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
for 101 minutes of administrative support at $36.39 per hour, the labor cost of the personnel
providing the service, per Fla. Stat. § 119.07(4)(d). There will also be a cost of $1.81 for the
cassette tape and $0.18 for the cd. 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. If you
would like to narrow the scope of your request, for example, by identifying a particular
document type or date range, the Town may be able to provide these records at a lower cost.
(101 minutes @ 36.39/hr = 61.26) - (.25 hour @ 36.39= 9.10) + (1.81 flat fee for cassette) +
(.18 flat fee for cd) = Deposit Due: $54.19 in cash or check.
The Town of Gulf Stream is currently working on a large number of incoming public records
requests. Upon receipt of your deposit, the Town will use its very best efforts to further respond
to your public records request in a reasonable amount of time.
Sincerely, Town Clerk
