Hello,

The Borough of Mount Arlington received your Open Public Records Act (OPRA) request on April 20, 2021. As such, the (7) seven business day deadline to respond to your request is April 29, 2021. This response to your request is being provided to you on the (1) first business day after the custodian's receipt of said request.

Your requests sought the following information:

“If your municipality has a police civilian review board, or police citizen advisory board could you please provide a copy of the ordinance/resolution that formed the board and their by-laws."
No records exist responsive to this request. As no records exist, your request for these records is denied. See, Bailey v. Department of Agriculture, GRC Complaint No.: 2003-116, Tyrone Jamison v. City of New Brunswick, GRC Complaint No.: 2013-252.

If your request for access to a government record has been denied or unfilled within the seven (7) business days required by law, you have a right to challenge the decision by the Borough of Mount Arlington to deny access. At your option, you may either institute a proceeding in the Superior court of New Jersey or file a complaint with the Government Records Council (GRC) by completing a Denial of Access Complaint Form. You may contact the GRC by toll-free telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819 Trenton, New Jersey 08625, by e-mail at [email address] or at their web site at www.state.nj.us/grc. The Council can also answer other questions about the law. All questions regarding complaints filed in the Superior Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your county.
