Dear Brick Township,

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. 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.

Records requested:

Pursuant to the New Jersey Open Public Records Act, N.J.S.A. 47:1A‑1 et seq., I request the following records regarding the repavement and drainage project undertaken by New Jersey Natural Gas on Meridian Drive in Brick, New Jersey:

2. All communications (including emails, memos, letters, texts, and meeting records) between New Jersey Natural Gas and the Township regarding this project.
3. All records of communications from Township officials—including Mayor Lisa crate, township manager Joanne Bergen, and any Brick Township Council member—who corresponded directly with New Jersey Natural Gas or Mayor Bergen about this project.

Please include any internal memos or emails within Township departments that discuss or reference the project.

Pursuant to OPRA, I expect a response within seven business days of your receipt of this request. If you deny any portion of this request, kindly cite specific legal exemptions. Should clarification be needed, I will respond promptly in order to facilitate timely production.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.
