Recording Fee Increase for Archiving Records
A county board of supervisors could impose a new recording fee charged to consumers of up to $3 per document for the archiving of historical county records under AB 827 (Yamada). The bill is pending on the Senate Floor after passing the Assembly on a 48-32 vote. The archived records could include records pertaining to local agency meetings and actions, roads and other public works, and other records of general public or historical interest.
