Dear Westwood Regional School District,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to remind you of the legal requirement outlined in the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) in New Jersey. OPRA mandates a response to records requests within a timeframe of seven business days.

I understand that you are familiar with OPRA, and I appreciate your cooperation in the past. However, it’s crucial to emphasize the importance of complying with the seven-day response timeframe specified by the law.

If, for any reason, you anticipate challenges in meeting this deadline for my recent OPRA request, I kindly request that you reach out to me promptly to discuss any issues or extensions that may be necessary. Clear communication ensures transparency and helps address potential concerns regarding the timeliness of the response.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your timely manner.

Yours faithfully,
