    A. 
    There shall be no fee charged for the following:
    (1) 
    Inspection of records.
    (2) 
    Search for records.
    (3) 
    Any certification.
    B. 
    The City may charge a fee for copies of records, provided that:
    (1) 
    The fee for copying records shall not exceed $0.25 per page for photocopies not exceeding nine by 14 inches. This section shall not be construed to mandate the raising of fees where the City in the past has charged less than $0.25 for such copies.
    (2) 
    In agencies which do not have photocopying equipment, a transcript of the requested records shall be made upon request. Such transcripts may be either typed or handwritten. In such cases, the person requesting records may be charged for the clerical time involved in making the transcript.
    (3) 
    The fee for copies of records not covered by Subsection B(1) and (2) above shall not exceed the actual reproduction cost, which is the average unit cost for copying a record, excluding fixed costs of the City such as operator salaries.
