Dear Stratford Borough,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Open Public Records Act reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Stratford Borough's handling of my OPRA request 'Property Records'.

The OPRA law states that “a custodian of a government record shall grant access to a government record or deny a request for access to a government record as soon as possible, but not later than seven business days after receiving the request”. N.J.S.A 47:1A-5

Please acknowledge receipt of this message. Thanks.

Yours faithfully,

Omar
