Black and white copies .09 cents and full color copies were .49 cents (color copies were on coated stock). Kinko’s even did the copies for me, placed them in a bag and inserted heavy card stock to prevent the copies from folding. It was all great service with a smile.

I ask you, how is it a store can operate solely to print and make copies be profitable at these rates and our Town Office requires more than 4 times the cost per page ( a full .41cents more ) ?

Why is the Town copy rate rate so high?  We are told You are welcome to go to the Town Office and request information but when it costs you a dollar for every two pages, that’s ludicrous..and a major deterrent.

I don’t understand why we have to charge residents at all for document or report copies. If non residents want personal items copied make it no more than .10 a page. At .10 a page the town rate still would be 10% more than Kinko’s. I know it seems petty, but Town Document Copies are way too expensive in my opinion. Go ahead and wack the non-residents an exorbitant fee but not the residents and not for town reports.

To make things even clearer, I could purchase this Epson multifunction printer, scanner, fax unit and 500 sheets of paper for less than the cost 75 pages from the town office.

What do you think about copy costs?
