The Weston County Board of Commissioners approved Resolution 2025-8, rescinding the countys prior public-records fees resolution (2017-07) and replacing it with an updated fee structure identified in the motion as Resolution 2025-6.

During the discussion commissioners emphasized that some fees referenced in the prior resolution are statutorily required and will remain in force even after the local resolution is rescinded or replaced.
