Dear Winslow 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:
1. Total number of body cameras currently deployed in the police department.
2. Date on which body cameras were deployed to any of the police officers for the first time (year and month).
3. Invoice of body cameras purchase (if body cameras were purchased).
Yours faithfully,
Kim
Good Afternoon Kim,
Our office is in receipt of your OPRA Request. In reference to item #3, do you want the grant information in which some cameras were purchased?
Respectfully,

Dear Monica Morgan,
Thank you for your reply. I'm mainly interested in knowing when body cameras were first ever deployed to officers. My understanding is that there is time lapse between grant and actual use. Therefore, I would like actual purchase order of the cameras.
I would like to provide a more specific document request for items 1 and 2 (if you need). Please provide the following documents that are completed in the first month of deployment of body worn cameras (BWCs):
- Body Worn Total Activity Report (which generates members' BWC activation activity)
- Body Worn Camera review report (performed by supervisors; one in the first month of deployment is fine)
If there is a more efficient way to know the first deployment date (a better document that has this information) please advise.
Thank you!
Good Morning Mr. Kim,
I have updated the Chief of Police with this updated info regarding your
OPRA Request.
Thank you.
