2024 Public Meeting Recordings
Charlie Kratovil made this OPRA request to Spotswood Borough as part of a batch sent to 35 authorities Automatic anti-spam measures are in place for this older request. Please let us know if a further response is expected or if you are having trouble responding.
Dear Spotswood Borough,
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

Thank you
Dear Ms. Servis,
Thank you for making arrangements to upload the video recordings to a Google Drive folder. The only thing I need now to close out this particular request is for you to share that folder with my gmail account: ckratovil
I requested access via Google earlier today, so you (or whoever created the folder) should be able to approve my request and then I will be able to access the recordings. Thanks in advance for your help.
Yours sincerely,
Charlie Kratovil
