PUBLIC RECORDS -- Amends existing law to provide certain deadlines for producing records pursuant to a public records request.

PUBLIC RECORDS

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

This bill would differentiate deadlines to provide public records requests made to public agencies. A public agency will have up to ten working days, from the time of request, to provide the public records to an Idaho resident. A public agency will have up to twenty-one working days, from the time of request, to provide the public records made by a non-resident. This will allow more time for public agencies to meet the demand of public records requests, both in quantity and breadth of specific records solicited, while still prioritizing Idaho residents’ requests.
