One of the key functions of the Office of 县 is to receive requests for records under the Open Records laws of the State of Georgia. Filing an open records request in Georgia is a simple process that has become even more accessible due to actions taken by the Georgia legislature over the past few year. Georgia’s updated sunshine laws bring transparency to government records such as meeting minutes, 照片, 书, maps and an assortment of files.
