Mr. Oman questioned why he was being denied <br />information. Mr. Oman commented that he had been billed for the <br />packets but had not paid for them because he was upset about not receiving <br />11 of the information. Mr. Oman further stated that Orduno stated a <br />~ifferent fee than what he was invoiced. <br />Mayor Linke explained to Mr. Oman that anyone who requests packets gets <br />exactly the same information as the Council with the exception to large <br />books or binders because of the cost of copying them. Linke also pointed <br />out that many times items are received at the meetings and that those same <br />items are available to the public and are located in the Public Book on the <br />Recording Secretary's table. <br />Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, pointed out to the Mr. Oman what it <br />costs to process an agenda packet and that the City is charging a very <br />minimal amount for the information in the packet. Orduno pointed out that <br />for an average agenda it costs approximately $9.00 per packet. The City <br />charges $55.00 per year for 36 packets. Orduno asked Mr. Oman what items he <br />didn't receive that the Council receives. <br />Mr. Oman reported that he had not received "This Is It", "Staff Stuff", tax <br />information, some staff reports, and the budget information. Oman stated <br />that when he spoke to Samantha about receiving a packet she told him it <br />would be between $25 and $30 for the entire year. Mr. Oman stated that he <br />understood that the Council determines what information is put into the <br />packet. <br />Orduno stated that in order to clear the record she had never quoted $25 or <br />~30 as a cost for packets for a year. <br />
