Public Records Requests and FOIA in Perry County

Anyone can request public records from Perry County agencies under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act. The Act is codified at Arkansas Code Annotated § 25-19-101 et seq. and gives residents the right to inspect and copy government documents. That covers everything from county contracts and meeting minutes to law enforcement reports and property tax records.

The process is straightforward. Identify the office that holds the record, then contact that office's designated custodian directly. For most county records, start with the County Clerk at (501) 889-5126. For law enforcement records, the Sheriff's office at (501) 889-3309 is the right contact. Custodians must respond within three business days under § 25-19-105. If a request involves substantial copying costs over $25, cost recovery provisions under § 25-19-105(d)(3)(A)(iii) may apply.

The Arkansas FOIA portal has guidance on how to write and submit a request. The Attorney General's office also interprets FOIA requirements and can issue opinions on access disputes. If you receive a denial that you believe is improper, the AG's office is the right place to start.
