Dear Lawrence Township (Mercer),

 

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under the
OPRA and the common law right of access. I am a journalist with New
Brunswick Today and Trenton Makes News, and require the records for my
reporting on New Jersey's local governments, school districts, and
autonomous authorities. 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.

 

Please provide a copy of your current directory of appointed officials, as
of today, 10/1/2024, including at least the following information for
every authority, board and commission:

(a) the name of the authority, board, or commission;

(b) the number of members or positions;

(c) a list of currently appointed members, along with their terms of
office;

(d) vacancies;

(e) general frequency of meetings; and

(f) the appointing authority and the enabling statute, ordinance, or
resolution, if any.

 

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail
as an attachment.

 

If no current directory exists, or if the directory is missing some of the
above information, be guided by NJSA 40A:9-9.2, which requires the above
directory to be maintained on an ongoing basis and to include, at a
minimum, the information that I am presently requesting.

 

Please confirm you have received this request, and feel free to contact me
at 732-993-9697 if I can be helpful in clarifying this request. Thanks
very much and have a nice day.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Charlie Kratovil
