Dear Mr. Louis Bloom,
We have received your request for access to a copy of the names, job titles, and salaries of the employees of Grant County. We do not have an existing report that lists this particular information. We can compile a report consisting of this information from our data base. We estimate it would cost us $35 to generate the report. Grant County has a chapter in its County Code regarding Public Records. Go the Grant County’s web page at http://www.co.grant.wa.us/publicInfo/index.htm . If you want us to proceed with the request, fill out and sign the Request for Public Information Form and send it along with a check payable to Grant County for $35.

Bill Varney:
Thank you for your e-mail and information. I will wait until I have contacted all the other Washington counties before I send $35 to get the Grant county information. Lewis county will also have to compile the information from various databases and will be charging $35.
thanks,
Louis Bloom
