Yesterday, the Rocky Mountain News opined on Andy McElhany's bill to reduce the cost of copying in the state. It has been a while, but I reported that the local Courts are charging $1 per page plus $20 an hour for copying services. That cost makes documents which should be public, private.
Senate Bill 45, sponsored by Senate Minority Leader Andy McElhany, R-Colorado Springs, and Rep. Anne McGihon, D-Denver, is designed to bring down the cost of public access to a more reasonable level.
Good Job, Senator! This solves a real problem that is solvable in the current hostile legislative environment.
