B. Nothing in this chapter requires the city to create public records, or to compile, summarize, outline or in any other way create information from existing public records, at the request of a member of the public.

C. The city is not required to produce public records for inspection, or to copy public records, in the exact form or medium in which they are stored; provided, that any alteration of the form or medium of a city record shall not change the substantive content of the information contained in the public record.
