OPRA Processing Procedures
Dear Alpha Borough,
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:
In a PDF file, please provide the processing procedures for OPRA requests. In your explanation, please provide your procedure if clerk's window is closed totally to the public or closes early on the designated OPRA processing days. How is the processing time made up in the event of the absence(s)? Who other than Alpha Borough's Acting Municipal clerk has the authority to read and obtain the information to complete an OPRA request? How do notify the requester if additional time is needed?
Yours faithfully,
Lisa
