The City of North Augusta recognizes the South Carolina Freedom of Information Act (South Carolina Code 30-4-10) enacted by the South Carolina General Assembly that gives every citizen the right to access government meetings, documents and records. By standardizing the City’s procedures for processing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and establishing reasonable fees for such requests, the City will ensure its compliance with FOIA and its intended goal of transparency of City operations and policies. FOIA Request Processing Fee Schedule

All requests for information pursuant to the South Carolina Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) must be made in writing and submitted in person or by mail, email or fax to the City of North Augusta. To ensure accuracy in the City’s response, all requests should be as descriptive as possible.

In order to assist citizens making FOIA requests, the City of North Augusta has developed an Online FOIA Request Form. The form is only intended to ease the process for citizens when making their written FOIA requests and is not a requirement by the City to process any written requests it receives.
