Please see attached policy posted to the Old Bridge Township Facebook
Page. Please note this is the only responsive document to this request.

 

2 - List of all users of BOTH the Old Bridge Township's website AND Old
Bridge Township's Facebook page and their names/positions. To clarify, I
am asking for those individuals who have read/write access to the town

Pursuant to NJSA 47:1A-1.1 it has been determined that this request does
not qualify as a document request pursuant to the OPRA laws and the
definition thereof. This governmental custodian is not required to conduct
research, analyze, collate, compile and/or correlate data from existing
government records. A blanket request for all documents is not a document
request pursuant to OPRA and existing case law. Pursuant to MAG
Entertainment, LLC v Div. of Alcoholic Beverage Control, 375 N.J.Super.
534, 868A2d 1067 (App.Div.2005), and Bent 381 NJ Super 30. Under OPRA,
agencies are required to disclose only “identifiable” governmental
documents not otherwise exempt. Wholesale requests for general information
which have to be collated, analyzed and compiled by the entity are not
required. Therefore, I respectfully deny your request at this time to
create a list with the noted fields as this record does not exist within
the Township of Old Bridge.

 

3 - List of all individuals banned from the Old Bridge Township's Facebook
page ONLY.

There are no responsive records to this request.

 

 

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 Township of Old Bridge 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 the 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, NJ, 08625, by e-mail at [1][email address], or
at their web site at [2]www.state.nj.us/grc. The GRC can also answer other
questions about the law.  All questions regarding complaints filed in
Superior Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your County.

 

Sincerely,

Gabriella Siboni
