House Bill 100 seeks to enhance public record laws for public agencies that are not local governments by establishing clear requirements and deadlines for handling public information requests. Key provisions include the designation of a contact person for such requests, which must be publicly posted on the agency's website, and the creation of a structured process for submitting and tracking requests. Agencies are also required to maintain and publish records of information requests and responses for a two-year period. If an individual fails to respond to a request for clarification within 30 days, the agency may close the request after notifying the individual.

Additionally, the bill revises the fee structure associated with public information requests, mandating that the first hour of service be free of charge and limiting the hourly fees for subsequent services. It allows individuals to file complaints in district court if public agencies do not meet the established response deadlines. The effective date for most provisions is set for October 1, 2025, with certain sections becoming effective on July 1, 2026, and a termination date for one section set for June 30, 2026. Overall, the legislation aims to promote transparency and accessibility in public agency operations while reinforcing the public's right to access information.
