You will be notified of estimated fees and costs in advance. Payment is required before MCSO will produce the documents.

Actual costs may include materials and mailing expenses, as well as staff time spent locating, reviewing, copying records or supervising a person’s inspection of original records. Fees are set by the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners each fiscal year and can be reviewed in the Master Fee Schedule updated annually. *If you are a victim, there is no charge for report copies. However, there may be additional charges for other types of records or documents. How do I file an employee complaint?
