to comply with the provisions of Section 610.026, RSMo.:
1. A fee of one hundred dollars ($100.00) per hour for activities performed
by attorneys;
2. A fee of fifteen dollars ($15.00) per hour for activities performed
by other staff, including time required to locate, prepare and copy
responsive documents;
3. A fee of ten cents ($0.10) per page for copies of a document;
4. A fee which includes only the cost of copies, equipment use, programming
and staff time required in the production of a public record maintained
on computer facilities, recording tapes or discs, videotapes or films,
pictures, slides, graphics, illustrations or similar audio or visual
items or devices;
5. A fee of thirty cents ($0.30) per mile to transport public records
to City Hall, where deemed appropriate, in the event the requested
record is not stored at City Hall.
6. Documents may be furnished without charge or at a reduced charge
when the City Clerk determines that waiver or reduction of the fee
is in the public interest because it is likely to contribute significantly
to public understanding of the operations or activities of the City
and is not primarily in the commercial interest of the requester.

The above fees may be required to be paid in advance.
