Open Records Decision
This matter having been presented to the Attorney General in an open records appeal, and the Attorney General being sufficiently advised, we find that the Jackson County Judge/Executive substantially complied with the Open Records Act in responding to Randy Skaggs's January 5, 1998, open records request. The Jackson County Judge/Executive agreed to furnish Mr. Skaggs with copies of all existing records satisfying his request upon prepayment of a reasonable copying charge not to exceed ten cents per page, and compiled the information which Mr. Skaggs requested, although not statutorily obligated to do so. We believe that 98-ORD-49, a copy of which is attached hereto, and incorporated by reference, is controlling.
A party aggrieved by this decision may appeal it by initiating action in the appropriate circuit court pursuant to KRS 61.880(5) and KRS 61.882. Pursuant to KRS 61.880(3), the Attorney General should be notified of any action in circuit court, but should not be named as a party in that action or in any subsequent proceeding.
