Augusta, Georgia, recognizes that full compliance with the requirements of the Georgia Open Records Act is a vital and essential component of creating and maintaining public trust and enhancing Augusta's effectiveness. To promote transparency in our local government, many public records are readily available. Please see the left sidebar for a list and locations of those records. To assist individuals seeking our public records that are not readily available, Augusta offers an online open records request portal as the preferred first choice to request public records from Augusta, GA.
Augusta's Open Records Officer is available to answer any questions you may have. For more information on the Georgia Open Records Act, please visit the Office of the Attorney General’s website.
Court records from the Superior, State, Juvenile, and Probate Courts are not available through Augusta’s open records portal.
