Public Record Access
Public information not currently available on the website is available by request. Methods of data request:
Email: If emailed data is adequate, please email requests to clerk. Information requested in email format needs to be requested by the same email address where the data is to be sent. This step is an important verification so we know the email we use is correct. A return receipt may be included with the information, please select yes so we know the information was delivered. Phoned or mailed in requests for emailed information will not be accepted as it does not allow for email address verification.
On-site:
Come to the township hall during office hours to request data. All public information is available for viewing during township hours, however, it is preferred that you provide prior notice for any data (other than minutes) that is more than one year old to allow the clerk time to obtain the data. Copies may be made on-site at a cost of $.25 per page. Other costs will be given prior to the filling of any data request.
Older minutes are now almost all available online for the Becker Town Board. HERE Please email clerk if you are having trouble finding a particular set. If you want to review the physical version of minutes, it must be done by appointment at Town Hall with the clerk or deputy clerk. There may be a time charge as the original books are to remain in site of staff at all times.
There are fees for paper copies of documents. The fee schedule located on the permits page includes fees for document requests. It is updated yearly.
