As a result of the ongoing pandemic, the Open Public Records Act (“OPRA”) was recently amended to address the processing of OPRA requests during a public emergency. Pursuant to the new law, “a custodian of record shall make a reasonable effort, as the circumstances permit, to respond to a request for access to a government record within 7 business days or as soon as possible thereafter.” Please be advised that all our staff is presently working remotely with limited access to City documents and records and will make a reasonable effort to satisfy your request. However, you should expect a complete response to your request after the expiration of this emergency and resumption of the Clerk’s Office to normal working conditions.
