OPRA: Payroll record 2012-2019 in the police department
Dear Readington 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:
For all employees working in the police department from 2012-2019:
Please provide the name, hire date, current status (whether active or separated), and date of separation.
Yours faithfully,
Necon
Please be advised that Readington does not except OPRA requests via email.
Please resubmit your request using one of the methods shown below.
The Township understands its obligation to honor OPRA requests on a form
other than the Township's form provided they contain all the required
information. However, per Paff v. City of East Orange, 407 N.J. Super 221
(App. Div. 2009), my office is permitted to establish appropriate policies
and practices regarding electronically transmitted requests. At this time,
the Township does not have a dedicated email address for OPRA requests and
until we do, the policy remains that requests must be made via fax, personal
delivery or regular mail in order to ensure that they are responded to
within the time required by law. Unfortunately, just because a person sends
an email to my individual address does not guarantee that I received or have
seen it; this has especially occurred in the past when I have been out of
the office.
Thank you.
