Mr. Martz,
This office is in receipt of your OPRA request dated March 30, 2026 seeking copies of all Egg Harbor Township Committee petitions filed for the June 2, 2026 Primary Election.
The requested records are on file with the Township; however, the petitions contain home address information of individual signatories. Certain address information may be exempt from disclosure pursuant to applicable law, including but not limited to protections afforded under Daniel’s Law, as well as privacy considerations recognized under OPRA and applicable case law.
Accordingly, the Township is able to proceed in one of the following ways:
Option 1 – Redacted Production
The Township can provide responsive records with all home addresses redacted. This option can be fulfilled within the standard OPRA response timeframe.
Option 2 – Unredacted Production (Subject to Review)
If you are requesting unredacted copies, additional time will be required for the Township to review each record to determine whether any address information is exempt from disclosure. This review is necessary to ensure compliance with applicable law. Depending on the scope of review required, a special service charge pursuant to N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(c) may apply. If so, you will be advised in advance.
Please advise how you wish to proceed so that we may respond to your request accordingly.
Kindly note that all responses are provided in accordance with the Open Public Records Act, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq., and any redactions will be identified.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
