A public records request is fi nally answered by the University of Oregon
March 30, 2017
Dear President Michael Schill:
Under Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 192, I am requesting a copy of the written employment contract, with all rele-
vant addenda, between the University of Oregon and football coach Willie Taggart. Given that Eugene Weekly is one of
the largest news outlets in Eugene, I request a fee waiver as the information is in the public interest.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Camilla Mortensen

Dear Eugene Weekly:
Under University of Oregon policy, we are allowed to assess a fee to cover costs of fulfi lling public records requests.
Based on your letter, it will cost $543.14 to estimate the cost of fi nding and and fully redacting the document(s) you
have requested. You must pay the full fee before we can produce the estimate.
Sincerely,
University of Oregon Offi ce of Public Records

Dear President Scott Coltrane:
Your proposed fee of $543.14 is excessive and uncalled for. By our calculations it can’t cost more than $345.72
for you to decide how much to charge us for the contract. And in any case, the university should waive all fees
because the information is in the public interest.
Sincerely,
Camilla Mortensen,

Dear Eugene Weekly:
After giving the matter careful consideration, we have realized the actual fee for computing an estimate of the
cost of the record(s) you requested is $499.99. If you agree to this one-time offer between now and Feb. 1, we
can throw in copies of contracts with all the remaining assistant coaches who haven’t been fi red or arrested,
along with a set of limited-edition steak knives.
Let us know soonest.

Here’s our best and fi nal offer: $200 now and another $100 (in cash!) on receipt of the estimate for actually
getting the contract, assuming that the fi nal estimate comes in below $300.
