How do I request to view or receive copies of Public Records and Sunshine Law requirements?

Sunshine Law

The Village of Evendale complies with all requirements of the Ohio Sunshine laws including responding to all public records requests and maintaining a records retention schedule.  The Village of Evendale complies will all open meeting requirements.  All Council and Council committee meetings are open to the public.

Public Records Requests

The Village of Evendale complies with Ohio law (O.R.C. 149.43) regarding access to public records. Individuals wishing to view public records may generally do so at Evendale’s Municipal Building during normal working hours of the administrative personnel in whose custody the records are kept. Because we are a small community with a relatively small staff, it may not always be possible to review records instantaneously. Sometimes, it is necessary to assemble the public records an individual wishes to view and it may take some time, depending on the volume and complexity of the request.

Those individuals wishing to obtain copies of public records may do so by contacting the Village Clerk by email, by telephone at 563-2244 or by written request. The Village will provide copies within a reasonable time after the request is received. Copies are provided at a cost of five cents per page.

In order to service you better by providing access to, or copies of public records, we ask that you provide the following contact information or complete the Public Record Form:

• NAME
• DATE OF REQUEST
• ADDRESS
• PHONE
• SUBJECT OF REQUEST (be specific)
