City Clerk

The City of Newton Falls has adopted a Public Records Policy to comply strictly with the Public Records Act of Ohio. Any exceptions to public access are to be narrowly interpreted, and any denial of access to public records in response to a valid request must be accompanied by an explanation, including legal authority, as outlined in the Ohio Revised Code. If the request is in writing, the explanation must also be in writing. A copy of the complete policy is available upon request.

The City of Newton Falls, in accordance with the Ohio Revised Code, defines records as including the following: Any document – paper, electronic (including, but not limited to, e-mail), or other format – that is created or received by, or comes under the jurisdiction of a public office that documents the organization, functions, policies, decisions, procedures, operations, or other activities of the office. All records of the City are public unless they are specifically exempt from disclosure under the Ohio Revised Code.
