2024 Public Meeting Recordings
Dear Robbinsville Township,
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-6(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: all existing recordings of public meetings held in 2024.
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. However, I recognize that many recordings, especially video recordings, are too large to send via email. If that is the case, I can recommend: 1) uploading the recordings to a Google Drive folder and sharing it with my Google account: ckratovil, or 2) using the free service WeTransfer to send the recordings to my email address: [email address].
I am also open to other methods, including picking up a flash drive or CD/DVD at your office, or receiving the same via US mail at our PO Box: #3180, New Brunswick, NJ 08903. Please confirm you have received this request and feel free to contact me at 732-993-9697 with any questions or to make any necessary arrangements. 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,
Charlie Kratovil

Your request for “any recordings” is not a valid OPRA request. A proper request under OPRA must identify with reasonable clarity those documents that are desired including an approximate date of the document. As per Appellate Court Division decision Elizabeth Mason v. Hoboken - Docket No. A-0508-06T5, specificity is required for a proper OPRA request. The court noted that OPRA was not intended to be used as a fishing expedition or as a research tool to compile unknown documents and that a person must know which records he or she wants and ask for those specific document. With that said, the recordings I have found are located at this link:
https://obrienconsultingsvcs-my.sharepoi...
Please download these to your PC as soon as possible as they will only remain at this link a short time. If these are not the recordings you are seeking, please list the name of the board and date of the meeting and I can re-check our records to see if anything exists.
Sincerely,
