Dear Requestor,

The Township of Lakewood received your Open Public Records Act
(OPRA) request on 12/11/2023. As such, the seven (7) business day
deadline to respond to your request is 12/20/2023. This response
to your request is being provided to you on the 3rd business day
after the custodian's receipt of said request.

OPRA allows public agencies to impose special service charges
whenever the nature, format, manner of collation, or volume of a
government record embodied in the form of printed matter to be
inspected, examined, or copied pursuant to this section is such
that the record cannot be reproduced by ordinary document copying
equipment in ordinary business size or when fulfilling a request
requires an extraordinary expenditure of time and effort. See
N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5.c. Special service charges must be based upon the
actual direct cost of providing the copy or copies.

OPRA mandates that the requestor shall have the opportunit y to
review and object to the charge prior to it being incurred. See
N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5.c. As such, a detailed estimate is provided
below:

$18.93 (the direct hourly rate [minus fringe benefits] lowest
level employee capable of fulfilling the request x 5 (the number
of hours anticipated to complete request)= $94.65

$94.65+ 17.50 (350 total reprinted pages x $0.05 per page)=
$112.15 estimated cost associated with this request

In accordance with N.J.S.A 47:1A-5(f), an agency may require a
deposit from anonymous requestors. The deposit associated with
this request is $56.25.

Kindly respond in writing with your acceptance or rejection of
this estimated charge. We will not begin to process this request
until we receive your deposit of $56.25

If you reject the estimated charge and you wish to challenge the
special service charge, you have a right to challenge the
decision. At your option, you may either institute a proceeding in
the Superior Court of New Jersey or file a complaint with the
Government Records Council (GRC) by completing the Denial of
Access Complaint Form. You may contact the GRC by toll-free
telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819, Trenton, NJ,
08625, by e-mail at [email address], or at their web site at
www.state.nj.us/grc. The GRC can also answer other questions about
the law. All questions regarding complaints filed in Superior
Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your County.
