To whom it may concern,
Your OPRA request for information regarding Body Worn Cameras (BWC) has
not been completed for the following reason:
N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5.f states:
f. The custodian of a public agency shall adopt a form for the use of any
person who requests access to a government record held or controlled by
the public agency. The form shall provide space for the name, address, and
phone number of the requestor and a brief description of the government
record sought. The form shall include space for the custodian to indicate
which record will be made available, when the record will be available,
and the fees to be charged. The form shall also include the following: (1)
specific directions and procedures for requesting a record; (2) a
statement as to whether prepayment of fees or a deposit is required; (3)
the time period within which the public agency is required by P.L.1963,
c.73 (C.47:1A-1 et seq.) as amended and supplemented, to make the record
available; (4) a statement of the requestor's right to challenge a
decision by the public agency to deny access and the procedure for filing
an appeal; (5) space for the custodian to list reasons if a request is
denied in whole or in part; (6) space for the requestor to sign and date
the form; (7) space for the custodian to sign and date the form if the
request is fulfilled or denied.
I understand your email states you are not required to fill out an
official form but the OPRA Statute states otherwise. Please complete a
Borough of Caldwell OPRA form which is located on the Borough’s website
with the specific information you are requesting and the request will be
completed once it is received. If we do not receive an official form, we
will consider your non-response as an indication you no longer wish to
receive the information requested.
If you wish to discuss this further, please contact me at your
convenience.
