56 Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Florida:
57
58 Section 1. Subsection (1) of section 119.011, Florida
59 Statutes, is amended to read:
60 119.011 Definitions.—As used in this chapter, the term:
61 (1) “Actual cost of duplication” means the cost of the
62 material and supplies used to duplicate the public record, but
63 does not include labor cost or overhead cost associated with
64 such duplication. The term includes the cost of agency
65 resources, including the cost of clerical and supervisory
66 assistance and costs incurred for the use of agency information
67 technology associated with such duplication which are incurred
68 by the agency in complying with a request for public records.
69 The cost of clerical or supervisory assistance may not be
70 greater than the base hourly rate of the lowest paid personnel
71 capable of providing such clerical or supervisory assistance.
72 The term does not include overhead costs associated with
73 duplication of a public record.
74 Section 2. Section 119.07, Florida Statutes, is amended to
75 read:
76 119.07 Inspection and copying of records; photographing
77 public records; fees; exemptions.—
78 (1)(a) Every person who has custody of a public record
79 shall permit the record to be inspected and copied by any person
80 desiring to do so, at any reasonable time, under reasonable
81 conditions, and under supervision by the custodian of the public
82 records.
83 (b) A custodian of public records or a person having
84 custody of public records may designate another officer or
85 employee of the agency to permit the inspection and copying of
86 public records, but must disclose the identity of the designee
87 to the person requesting to inspect or copy public records.
88 (c)1. A custodian of public records and his or her designee
89 must acknowledge requests to inspect or copy records promptly
90 and respond to such requests in good faith. A good faith
91 response includes making reasonable efforts to determine from
92 other officers or employees within the agency whether such a
93 record exists and, if so, the location at which the record can
94 be accessed. Failure to acknowledge a public record request
95 promptly and in good faith is a violation of this chapter.
96 2.a. No later than 3 business days after receiving a public
97 record request, a custodian of a public record or his or her
98 designee must:
99 (I) Provide the requested records;
100 (II) Provide the requester a good faith estimate of a
101 reasonable amount of time in which the custodian will provide
102 the records, along with a good faith estimate of costs, if any,
103 that will be assessed for complying with the request; or
104 (III) Deny the request and cite the statutory exemption
105 authorizing the denial as provided in paragraphs (e) and (f).
106 b. If the custodian of a public record fails to take any of
107 the actions described in sub-subparagraph a. within 3 business
108 days after receiving the public record request, the agency may
109 not impose costs or fees for providing the requested public
110 record.
111 c. Notwithstanding sub-subparagraph a., there is no
112 presumption in any civil action brought to enforce a requester’s
113 right to public records that a request was not unlawfully
114 delayed because an agency complied with sub-subparagraph a.
115 (d) A person who has custody of a public record who asserts
116 that an exemption applies to a part of such record shall redact
117 that portion of the record to which an exemption has been
118 asserted and validly applies, and such person shall produce the
119 remainder of such record for inspection and copying.
120 (e) If the person who has custody of a public record
121 contends that all or part of the record is exempt from
122 inspection and copying, he or she shall state the basis of the
123 exemption that he or she contends is applicable to the record,
124 including the statutory citation to an exemption created or
125 afforded by statute.
126 (f) If requested by the person seeking to inspect or copy
127 the record, the custodian of public records shall state in
128 writing and with particularity: the reasons
129 1. The reasons that justify taking more than 15 days to
130 provide the requested records; or
131 2. The reasons for the conclusion that the record is exempt
132 or confidential, including all statutory citations relied upon
133 in determining the record is exempt or confidential.
134 (g)1. In any civil action in which an exemption to this
135 section is asserted, if the exemption is alleged to exist under
136 or by virtue of s. 119.071(1)(d) or (f), (2)(d), (e), or (f), or
137 (4)(c), the public record or part thereof in question shall be
138 submitted to the court for an inspection in camera. If an
139 exemption is alleged to exist under or by virtue of s.
140 119.071(2)(c), an inspection in camera is discretionary with the
141 court. If the court finds that the asserted exemption is not
142 applicable, it shall order the public record or part thereof in
143 question to be immediately produced for inspection or copying as
144 requested by the person seeking such access.
145 2. In any civil action brought by a requester to enforce
146 the right to public records, an agency may not assert any
147 exemption or justification for not providing the public records
148 sought which it has not previously raised before the civil
149 action was filed, to justify the agency’s nondisclosure or delay
150 in providing the public records sought.
151 3. In any civil action brought by a requester alleging that
152 an agency unlawfully delayed providing public records, a public
153 records request backlog or other unfulfilled public records
154 requests at the agency may not be deemed a justification, in
155 whole or in part, for the alleged delay.
156 (h) Even if an assertion is made by the custodian of public
157 records that a requested record is not a public record subject
158 to public inspection or copying under this subsection, the
159 requested record shall, nevertheless, not be disposed of for a
160 period of 30 days after the date on which a written request to
161 inspect or copy the record was served on or otherwise made to
162 the custodian of public records by the person seeking access to
163 the record. If a civil action is instituted within the 30-day
164 period to enforce the provisions of this section with respect to
165 the requested record, the custodian of public records may not
166 dispose of the record except by order of a court of competent
167 jurisdiction after notice to all affected parties.
168 (i) The absence of a civil action instituted for the
169 purpose stated in paragraph (g) does not relieve the custodian
170 of public records of the duty to maintain the record as a public
171 record if the record is in fact a public record subject to
172 public inspection and copying under this subsection and does not
173 otherwise excuse or exonerate the custodian of public records
174 from any unauthorized or unlawful disposition of such record.
175 (2)(a) As an additional means of inspecting or copying
176 public records, a custodian of public records may provide access
177 to public records by remote electronic means, provided exempt or
178 confidential information is not disclosed.
179 (b) The custodian of public records shall provide
180 safeguards to protect the contents of public records from
181 unauthorized remote electronic access or alteration and to
182 prevent the disclosure or modification of those portions of
183 public records which are exempt or confidential from subsection
184 (1) or s. 24, Art. I of the State Constitution.
185 (c) Unless otherwise required by law, the custodian of
186 public records may charge a fee for remote electronic access,
187 granted under a contractual arrangement with a user, which fee
188 may include the direct and indirect costs of providing such
189 access. Fees for remote electronic access provided to the
190 general public shall be in accordance with the provisions of
191 this section.
192 (3)(a) Any person shall have the right of access to public
193 records for the purpose of making photographs of the record
194 while such record is in the possession, custody, and control of
195 the custodian of public records.
196 (b) This subsection applies to the making of photographs in
197 the conventional sense by use of a camera device to capture
198 images of public records but excludes the duplication of
199 microfilm in the possession of the clerk of the circuit court
200 where a copy of the microfilm may be made available by the
201 clerk.
202 (c) Photographing public records shall be done under the
203 supervision of the custodian of public records, who may adopt
204 and enforce reasonable rules governing the photographing of such
205 records.
206 (d) Photographing of public records shall be done in the
207 room where the public records are kept. If, in the judgment of
208 the custodian of public records, this is impossible or
209 impracticable, photographing shall be done in another room or
210 place, as nearly adjacent as possible to the room where the
211 public records are kept, to be determined by the custodian of
212 public records. Where provision of another room or place for
213 photographing is required, the expense of providing the same
214 shall be paid by the person desiring to photograph the public
215 record pursuant to paragraph (4)(h) (4)(e).
216 (4) The custodian of public records shall furnish a copy or
217 a certified copy of the record upon payment of the fee
218 prescribed by law. If a fee is not prescribed by law, the
219 following fees are authorized:
220 (a) If a fee is not prescribed by law, the following fees
221 are authorized:
222 1. Up to 15 cents per one-sided copy for duplicated copies
223 of not more than 14 inches by 8 1/2 inches;
224 2. No more than an additional 5 cents for each two-sided
225 copy; and
226 3. For all other copies, the actual cost of duplication of
227 the public record.
228
229 If the nature or volume of the public records requested to be
230 inspected or copied is such that they require less than 30
231 minutes to prepare, the agency may not charge the actual cost of
232 duplication or any other costs or fees to the requester.
233 (b)1. For the purposes of this paragraph, the term “any
234 electronic medium stored, maintained, or used by an agency”
235 means any electronic format that the agency can reasonably
236 provide as part of the standard operation of its electronic
237 recordkeeping system. If an agency is able to convert the record
238 into the electronic format requested as a step in the process of
239 copying or exporting the requested record, the agency must
240 provide the record in the format requested and may charge a fee
241 authorized by this subsection.
242 2. For a copy of a public record in any electronic medium
243 stored, maintained, or used by an agency, the actual cost of
244 duplication. However, if the nature or volume of the public
245 records requested to be copied is such that they require less
246 than 30 minutes to prepare, the agency may not charge the actual
247 cost of duplication or any other costs or fees to the requester.
248 3. An agency may not charge a requester the actual cost of
249 duplication or any other cost or fee for providing any public
250 record that has been previously disclosed pursuant to another
251 public records request made to that agency.
252 (c) The charge for copies of county maps or aerial
253 photographs supplied by county constitutional officers may also
254 include a reasonable charge for the labor and overhead
255 associated with their duplication.
256 (d)(c) An agency may charge up to $1 per copy for a
257 certified copy of a public record.
258 (e)(d) All fees allowed under this subsection may be
259 reduced or waived in full for a public purpose, including public
260 agency program support, nonprofit activities, journalistic
261 activities, and academic or other research. Fee reductions and
262 waivers must be uniformly applied among persons similarly
263 situated. For a public records request meeting the public
264 purposes noted in this paragraph, an agency may not charge the
265 requester any cost or fee for the first 10 hours of time the
266 agency estimates it would take to comply with the request If the
267 nature or volume of public records requested to be inspected or
268 copied pursuant to this subsection is such as to require
269 extensive use of information technology resources or extensive
270 clerical or supervisory assistance by personnel of the agency
271 involved, or both, the agency may charge, in addition to the
272 actual cost of duplication, a special service charge, which
273 shall be reasonable and shall be based on the cost incurred for
274 such extensive use of information technology resources or the
275 labor cost of the personnel providing the service that is
276 actually incurred by the agency or attributable to the agency
277 for the clerical and supervisory assistance required, or both.
278 (f) If requested by the person seeking to inspect or copy
279 the record, the custodian of public records must provide that
280 person a written detailed estimate of all costs associated with
281 the request.
282 (g) An agency is not authorized to charge a fee for costs
283 associated with redaction of exempt or confidential and exempt
284 information from a public record that has been requested to be
285 inspected or copied.
286 (h)1.(e)1. Where provision of another room or place is
287 necessary to photograph public records, the expense of providing
288 the same must shall be paid by the person desiring to photograph
289 the public records.
290 2. The custodian of public records may charge the person
291 making the photographs for supervision services at a rate of
292 compensation to be agreed upon by the person desiring to make
293 the photographs and the custodian of public records. If they
294 fail to agree as to the appropriate charge, the charge shall be
295 determined by the custodian of public records.
296 (5) When ballots are produced under this section for
297 inspection or examination, no persons other than the supervisor
298 of elections or the supervisor’s employees shall touch the
299 ballots. If the ballots are being examined before the end of the
300 contest period in s. 102.168, the supervisor of elections shall
301 make a reasonable effort to notify all candidates by telephone
302 or otherwise of the time and place of the inspection or
303 examination. All such candidates, or their representatives,
304 shall be allowed to be present during the inspection or
305 examination.
306 (6) An exemption contained in this chapter or in any other
307 general or special law shall not limit the access of the Auditor
308 General, the Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government
309 Accountability, or any state, county, municipal, university,
310 board of community college, school district, or special district
311 internal auditor to public records when such person states in
312 writing that such records are needed for a properly authorized
313 audit, examination, or investigation. Such person shall maintain
314 the exempt or confidential status of that public record and
315 shall be subject to the same penalties as the custodian of that
316 record for public disclosure of such record.
317 (7) An exemption from this section does not imply an
318 exemption from s. 286.011. The exemption from s. 286.011 must be
319 expressly provided.
320 (8) The provisions of this section are not intended to
321 expand or limit the provisions of Rule 3.220, Florida Rules of
322 Criminal Procedure, regarding the right and extent of discovery
323 by the state or by a defendant in a criminal prosecution or in
324 collateral postconviction proceedings. This section may not be
325 used by any inmate as the basis for failing to timely litigate
326 any postconviction action.
327 (9) After receiving a request to inspect or copy a record,
328 an agency may not respond to that request by filing an action
329 for declaratory relief against the requester to determine
330 whether the record is a public record as defined by s. 119.011,
331 or the status of the record as confidential or exempt from the
332 provisions of subsection (1).
333 Section 3. Section 119.10, Florida Statutes, is amended to
334 read:
