-----
The Township of Livingston's Clerk Department is temporarily closed to the public until further notice. The Clerks Department is fully functional, however it might take us a little longer than normal to respond. Please note: If you are submitting an OPRA request, pursuant to P.L. 2020 Ch 10, OPRA deadlines are inapplicable during a State of Emergency and that record custodians " must make a reasonable effort, as the circumstances permit to respond to a request for a government record within 7 business days or as soon as possible." In short, we will respond as quickly as we can under the current circumstances.

Dear  Taeho,

Your OPRA Request dated 5/27/2020 was received on 5/27/2020.  I am
forwarding the request to the individual and department I believe may have
documents responsive to your request, and had anticipated providing a
formal response to your request on or before 6/52020, seven business days
after receipt of your request.  However, an additional 5 business days is
needed to determine if there are any exiting records responsive to your
requests.  I expect a formal response to be provided to you by June 12,
2020. Also pursuant to [1]P.L. 2020, c. 10  which took effect on March 20,
2020, "during a period of a declared State of Emergency, Public Health
Emergency, or State of Local Disaster Emergency the seven business days or
soon as possible after the deadline to respond to Open Public Records Act
(OPRA) requests does not apply. The records custodian must make reasonable
effort, as the circumstance permit, to respond to an OPRA request within
the seven business days or soon as possible after the deadline."   

Our office is working on a modified schedule during this State of
Emergency and will make every effort to respond in a timely manner to your
OPRA Request.  

If you have any questions in the interim, please do not hesitate to call
the Township Clerk, Glenn R. Turtletaub on his direct
line [2](973-535-7966).

Records requested:
