It really depends how much time it takes, just a simple map, I usually don't charge.
Lines Only maps are $0.25 each.. we always use photo paper.. anything with raster data/aerials is $3.00
These choices don't work for us.
We, in IT, do not provide custom map services for the public. We allow them to download the data or provide the data for free on media if they do not have the ability to download. Planning charges for some maps (i.e. Zoning Maps, Land Use Maps, etc) and Stormwater may charge for their department specific maps. If we do happen to print something for a citizen, we do it free of charge.
