Montrose Press: Delta County did not improperly deny inspection of public records concerning credit card use by the county administrator, a district court judge ruled in April.

The county provided the records it had that were responsive to the Delta County Citizen Report’s requests and the fees it sought in response to one of them were reasonable, given the amount of work involved in retrieving the record, District Judge Mary Deganhart ruled.

Because the action was not frivolous or without merit, however, Deganhart did not award the county fees or costs.
