Dear Andover Township,

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-5(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:

Any shared service agreements with Lebanon Township (Hunterdon County) and any correspondence between the two townships regarding employees, services or schedules

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.

Yours faithfully,

Concerned Resident

Patricia Bussow, Andover Township

Dear Concerned Resident,
I am in receipt of your OPRA request, and need further clarification
before proceeding.
“Any correspondence” is overly broad. Please specify the type of
correspondence you are seeking, including the subject matter, method of
communication, and the specific titles or positions of the sender and/or
recipient.

Thank you,

Dear Patricia Bussow,

The boilerplate request for correspondence has been easily fulfilled in the past, but for the sake of brevity please omit the request for correspondence and solely I am requesting any shared service agreements between Andover Township and Lebanon Township.

Yours sincerely,

Concerned Resident

Patricia Bussow, Andover Township

Good Morning Concerned Resident,
I am in receipt of your updated OPRA request.
Please be advised that Under New Jersey's [1]Open Public Records
Act (OPRA), correspondence (emails, letters, texts) is generally public if
it concerns government business, but 2024 amendments require requests to
specify individuals, subject matter, and a reasonable time frame to avoid
being overly broad.
Attached please find the requested contract.
This OPRA request is deemed complete.
Thank you,

Patricia L. Bussow, RMC/CMR
