Public Records

Most records maintained by the City are subject to Wisconsin's Public Records Law. This website contains many of the documents you may be looking for, but if you can't find what you need, or if you require an official copy of a particular records, please complete the Records Request Form online, or download/print the request form and return it to City Hall.

Please note that the Clerk/Treasurer is the records custodian for all City related items, except for Police Department records, of which the Police Chief is records custodian. Costs to provide the requested records will be charged to the person making the request.

Records may be requested, inspected and/or copies obtained during the regular business hours of the Records Custodian. In some cases, records may require retrieval and may not be immediately available for inspection. Every effort will be made to respond to your request as soon as practicable and without delay, but please allow 10 business days for information to be researched if necessary.

The cost of photocopies is $0.25 per page, which has been calculated to be the actual, necessary and direct cost of reproduction. In cases where the actual costs go beyond simply copying a requested record, the Records Custodian may charge for any and all associated costs to comply with the request, up to and including applicable shipping, mailing, and the hourly wages/benefits associated with the retrieval of the records. Per Wis. Stats. 19.35(3)(f), a prepayment of such costs in excess of $5.00 may be required prior to processing the request.
