receiving copies of any public records, the copying and certification fees set forth in

Officer on determination and proof that the purpose of your request is primarily to benefit

from your request. If you wish to be considered for a fee waiver or reduction, you must
complete and sign the statement set forth in Subsection 2.B.

Information Act, 5 ILCS 140/1 et seq. For more detailed information, please consult The City of Lake Forest Rules and
