Dear Kenilworth Borough,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Open Public Records Act reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Kenilworth Borough's handling of my OPRA request 'Police Incident Reports'. On April 6th 2020 I submitted an OPRA request, by law, Kenilworth Borough should normally have responded promptly and by April 15, 2020. My request appears to have been ignored.

A full history of my OPRA request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://opramachine.com/request/police_i...

Yours faithfully,
Michael Izzo

Hi,

Your request has been received.
Please be advised that due to the COVID-19 Outbreak Borough Facilities are closed to the public and staffing is limited to Essential Employees at this time. Your request may take longer than usual to fulfill, please be patient and your request will be satisfied.
On March 20, 2020, Governor Murphy signed a series of coronavirus-related bills into law. Among them was A3849, which modifies the deadline by which public agencies must respond to an OPRA request during an emergency. Under normal circumstances, a public agency must respond to an OPRA request as soon as possible and no later than seven business days from the date of the request. The amendment provides that:
During a period declared pursuant to the laws of this State as a state of emergency, public health emergency, or state of local disaster emergency, the deadlines by which to respond to a request for, or grant or deny access to, a government record under paragraph (1) of this subsection or subsection e. of this section shall not apply, provided, however, that the custodian of a government record shall make a reasonable effort, as the circumstances permit, to respond to a request for access to a government record within seven business days or as soon as possible thereafter.
Thank your in advance for your anticipated cooperation and patience.
Be well.
