Letter to Council President Mercado from Councilwoman Stubbs

Gloucester Township did not have the information requested.

Dear Gloucester Township,

This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:
On Monday January 24, 2022, GT Council President Orlando Mercado stated that he received and is possession of a letter that was submitted by Councilwoman Andrea Stubbs, regarding her absenteeism. I am requesting that letter, and any other letters that Councilwoman Stubbs has submitted to GT Council, Clerk, or solicitor, regarding her being absent from meetings from January 1, 2021 to January 25, 2022. It is very clear what I am requesting, and it is my hope that you will not feel the need to request additional details.
I am hoping that my request can be fulfilled within the 7 business day OPRA requirement, and not 7 "Gloucester Township days.

Yours faithfully,

Ray Polidoro

GT Clerk, Gloucester Township
