Sunshine Law information
Missouri's Sunshine Law is the embodiment of Missouri's commitment to openness in government. Chapter 610 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri is the foundation of what has become known as Missouri's Sunshine Law.
Make a Sunshine Law Request
If you would like to make a Sunshine request from a public governmental body, you will need to contact the agency that created and/or retains the public record you would like to inspect. For example, if you would like to request meeting minutes from your county, you will need to contact your county for that information.
Custodian of Records
Each public governmental body is required to have a custodian of records who is responsible for responding to public records requests. In order for individuals to have access to public records, each public governmental body is required to make their custodian’s name and contact information available upon request.
