Messages sent:
Summary posted:
Needles / Flock asked the Arizona Ombudsman–Citizens’ Aide for help assessing Mohave County’s $114.50 copying charge and resolving access to existing ALPR records. The message asks whether any further internal review step is appropriate. The original request and complete County email correspondence were supplied privately.
What this establishes
Sending and the attachments were verified. Ombudsman staff guidance and a case reference arrived October 14. The submission and subsequent guidance do not establish that a formal investigation has opened or that the office has made a ruling on the County’s fee. No fee has been authorized. The original correspondence is not published here.
What happens next
The October 22 packet supplies an itemized $114.60 invoice and says inspection scheduling at the Kingman office is being coordinated. It does not reconcile the earlier quotes or confirm free digital delivery, free inspection and self-copying, or an appointment. The October 13 fee dispute remains unresolved; no fee has been authorized. Await the fee basis, access arrangements and remaining records.
