Dear Perth Amboy City,

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-5(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.

I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.

I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:
Please provide copies of the meeting minutes/notes for all 2024 meetings of your municipal Environmental Commission/Committee, if one exists, and your "Green Team," if one exists.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.

Thank you very much for your assistance with this request.

Yours faithfully,

Food & Water Watch

Hi Theresa,

All is well, wishing you and your family the same. I have 2 agendas in my possession from the beginning of 2024, but Rosemary Nivar has the rest as she is the new point person. I have reached out to her so that she could forward the rest of the agendas. Once I have them, I'll send them over to you.

Regards,

Joel
