Re: New Jersey Open Public Records Act Request

Dear Custodian of Records,

I am writing to formally request access to certain public records under the provisions of the New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA), N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq. I am seeking information related to DeLorfette "Dee" Clark, who holds the position of Director or Chief of Ewing Township Emergency Medical Service (EMS). Specifically, I am requesting the following records and information:

1. Any legal agreements, contracts, or employment agreements, including but not limited to employment contracts, offer letters, or agreements of similar nature, related to the employment of DeLorfette "Dee" Clark as the Director or Chief of Ewing Township Emergency Medical Service.

2. Records related to disciplinary actions taken against Director Clark, including any notices of disciplinary action, records of suspensions, reprimands, investigations, and the outcomes thereof, if applicable.

3. Records of any police investigations, legal proceedings, or complaints filed against Director Clark that may have resulted in his absence from his current position, including but not limited to internal affairs investigations or other law enforcement inquiries.

4. Any financial settlements, severance agreements, or any other agreements reached between Ewing Township and DeLorfette "Dee" Clark, or any other employee involved with his current suspension or absence from his position.

Please provide copies of these records in digital format if available, or in paper format if digital copies are not available. If any records are not subject to disclosure under OPRA, please provide a written explanation and cite the specific OPRA exemption(s) that apply.

I request that you acknowledge receipt of this OPRA request in writing and provide a response within the statutory timeframe mandated by OPRA, which is generally seven (7) business days from the date of receipt. If you require any clarification or additional information to facilitate the processing of this request, please do not hesitate to contact me via email at [Your Email Address] or by phone at [Your Phone Number].

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter and your commitment to transparency and open government. I look forward to receiving the requested information within the timeframes prescribed by OPRA.
