MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
Olufemi Folarin, Acting City Manager
FROM: William A. Cogley, Corporation Counsel
SUBJECT: Correction of Scrivener' s Error in Ordinance Relating to
Charges for Photocopying of City Records
Section 4 . 32 . 010 of the Elgin Municipal Code provides for a
schedule for fees for copying of city records . A copy of Section
4 . 32 . 010 is attached. Subparagraph A provides for the charges for
photocopying. Records consisting of one to five pages have no
charge . Records consisting of six or more pages are intended to
have a charge of ten cents per page for photocopying. The current
provision relating to charges for documents consisting of six of
more pages is improperly worded and incorrectly suggests that the
per page charge relates only to pages six through fifteen and not
to pages after page fifteen.
Attached is an ordinance which would correct this misstatement of
the intended charges for photocopying of city documents .
Subparagraph 2 now provides that photocopying of documents of six
or more pages are to be charged at ten cents per page for all
pages .
I have placed the ordinance amending Section 4 . 32 . 010A on the City
Council' s consent agenda for the next City Council meeting on
February 23 , 2005 . Please contact me if you have any questions or
require any additional information.
