0663 CITY OF KENNEDALE, TX 2019
Requests may incur a fee, and the City of Kennedale may require prepayment. Charges vary depending on the number of responsive documents and personnel time
required. Vaguely -worded or broad requests return more results. The more specific your request, the quicker it can be fulfilled. Generally, the city will charge $0.10 per
page and $15.00 an hour for labor. Requests for standard -sized documents that will be delivered via email usually do not incur
charges, unless the request:
• is for more than fifty (50) pages,
• requires more than thirty (30) minutes of personnel time to locate, compile, manipulate data, and reproduce the information, or
• includes documents that are stored off -site.
If the estimated charges exceed $40.00, the requestor must approve an itemized estimate before work begins. When estimated costs exceed $100.00, the requestor is
required to make a deposit (typically 100% of the estimate) before work begins. If a requestor (or their organization) has a balance exceeding $100.00 for past requests,
the City of Kennedale will not process additional requests until the account is paid in full. You must approve any estimate of charges within ten (10) business days of
the date the estimate is sent or the request will be considered withdrawn.
