A public records request made by a Cave Junction man could save him money on fees he owes the city. The Illinois Valley News reports that Holger T. Sommer, who appealed a Cave Junction land use decision to the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals and lost, wants to see the bills from the city’s attorney. Sommer may be asked to pay $7,600 toward the cost of fighting him in court, a sum he finds unbelievable for “a small motion.” Apparently Sommer has already paid the city of Cave Junction $7,936 for a previously failed land use appeal. He’s hoping a little sleuthing might cut his costs.
