Police Records Request
Dear Ridgefield Borough,
Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.
I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.
I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
Police Body worn camera footage of all motor vehicle accidents between 8-1 and 8-7-25
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.
The maximum authorized cost is $0.
Yours faithfully,
Tony Michael
Good afternoon.
The Ridgefield Police Department has received your OPRA request for the
“Police Body worn camera footage of all motor vehicle accidents between
8-1 and 8-7-25”. Please know that this request is overly broad and your
request cannot be completed.
A valid OPRA request must identify specific records. The Borough of
Ridgefield has approximately 3-4 motor vehicle accidents a day. If you
are looking for a specific accident in that time frame, then please submit
another request to include the date and approximate time.
Thank you,
Gloria Kalisch
