    Fees

    Per Illinois law, there is no charge for the first 50 pages of all black-and-white letter- or legal-sized copies provided in response to a non-commercial Freedom of Information Act request. For all black-and-white letter- or legal-sized copies, the district will charge 15 cents per page for non-commercial requests beyond the first 50 pages, representing a reasonable calculation of the supplies and equipment cost for producing copies. The cost for copies other than letter- or legal-sized black-and-white papers, or materials supplied in other formats (including but not limited to flash drives, CDs, DVDs, etc.) shall be the actual cost of the medium, consistent with the guidelines set by the Freedom of Information Act.
