Total number of the households using underground septic system and not connected to public sewage
Dear Alexandria Township,
Pursuant to the New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA), N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq., I am requesting access to records related to the number of households with septic systems in [Municipality Name].
Specifically, I am requesting:
1. The total number of residential properties that rely on septic systems and not connected to public sewage within the municipality. Septic is also known as Individual Sewage Disposal System (ISDS)
I request these records in digital format (CSV, Excel, or PDF) if available. If the information is maintained in a database, I request an export of relevant fields.
If any portion of this request is denied or redacted, please provide a written explanation citing the specific legal reasons for the denial. If the records are available online, I appreciate guidance on how to access them.
Please advise me of any fees before processing the request if they exceed the standard OPRA fee schedule.
Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your response within the statutory timeframe of seven business days.
Sincerely,
Email: [email address]

Denis-
All of our residential properties have septic systems. We do not have public sewer in Alexandria Township. We have 1,519 Class 2 residential dwellings and 279 3A's which is typically the residential component of the farmland for a total of 1,798 dwellings however there maybe a few 3A's that are only barns and not homes. Also note that even our businesses operate on septic's here in Alexandria Township as a fun fact for you.
Please advise that you have received this response to your OPRA request-thank you!!!
