Government officials have three business days to respond to a request, County Attorney Ken Jarrard said, though not necessarily fulfill the request unless the records are readily available.
Jarrard said the county could appoint an open records custodian who would oversee all requests under the new contract, rather than separate records liaisons for each department.
Commissioners will formalize the vote at a future regular meeting.
In other matters at the work session, commissioners unanimously approved a $58,785 change order to the Big Creek Greenway project. The change order also extends construction on phase five of the project for 133 days.
The change order with Diversified Construction of Georgia includes jack and bore extension; extended job site supervision; and extended general conditions for safety requirements on the project.
Public Facilities Director Dan Callahan said the work is slated to be completed Aug. 15.
Also at the meeting, commissioners approved a change order for the construction of a web wall and related delay costs at the new Browns Bridge overpass for an additional cost of $2.1 million.
McKee said the work will not disrupt the newly opened bridge.
The County Commission also recognized April 9-15 as Telecommunicators Week, which recognizes the efforts of telecommunicators in the county 911 Center.
