If you are requesting public records, please provide the following information:
Consider how you can narrow the scope of your request to expedite the production process. The first 4 hours of work performed to respond to a public records request will be performed at no cost. After that, the Board may charge up to $25 per hour. If fees are being assessed, you will be given a written, itemized, good faith estimate of any fees that may be charged.
There is no charge to transmit a copy of records that the Board keeps in electronic form and which it can transmit via email or fax. If you wish to have a paper copy, the fee is 5¢ per page for both single and double-sided black and white copies, plus the cost of postage.
You may request copies of public records from the Board of Review by calling the RAO at (617) 626-6418 during regular business hours.
