OPRA-Req-21-0822
Date Received: 6/16/2021
Status: Completed
Date Completed: 6/17/2021
Applicant: Vanessa Levy
Information Requested: Dear Cherry Hill Township,

This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the
common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an
official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.

Pursuant to the Open Public Records Act, I am requesting the
following public records:

1)   The Municipality's current contract for waste disposal
services.

2)   If not specified in the contract itself, records indicating
the cost of disposal (in dollars per ton) for each year under the
contract, such as a Price Bid Form.

3)   If not specified in the contract itself, the term of the
contract and the terms for any renewal periods and notifications
required for activating or canceling such renewal periods.

For purposes of this request, the term "records" means information
of any kind, including, but not limited to, documents
(handwritten, typed, electronic or otherwise produced, reproduced,
or stored), letters, e-mails, text messages, facsimiles,
memoranda, correspondence, notes, databases, drawings, graphs,
charts, photographs, maps, forms, minutes of meetings, electronic
and magnetic recordings, and any other compilation of data from
which information can be obtained, no matter the media upon which
it is stored or whether communications took place on public or
private electronic devices or phone or email accounts.

If the Municipality believes the records exist that are responsive
to this request, but those records or portions of those records
are believed to be exempt from disclosure, please identify the
records that are being withheld. Please state the basis for the
denial for each record being withheld including statute,
regulation or court decision. Please cite that law or case,
including the specific section or sections you rely upon, in your
written response. In addition, please provide the nonexempt
portion of the records.

If the Municipality does not possess or control these records but
knows or believes that another entity does, please forward this
request to the appropriate person and inform me that you have done
so.

N.J.S.A.47:1A-5(d) states: "A custodian shall permit access to a
government record and provide a copy thereof in the medium
requested if the public agency maintains the record in that
medium. If the public agency does not maintain the record in the
medium requested, the custodian shall either convert the record to
the medium requested or provide a copy in some other meaningful
medium." Pursuant to 47:1A-5(d), please provide the records in
searchable, commonly-available electronic formats, such as text or
HTML formatted emails, PDF files, CSV spreadsheets, or Microsoft
Office formats. Files already in any of these formats are
requested to be provided in their native formats for ease of use
and for minimal burden on Municipality staff. Please know that
electronic records that are printed and scanned, making them
unsearchable will be deemed a denial of this request and will
leave the Municipality subject to legal appeal.

I ask that the fees be waived in accordance with
N.J.S.A.47:1A-5(b) which states: "Access to electronic records and
non-printed materials shall be provided free of charge."

Please provide these records here. If files are unusually large,
please consult me to arrange the least-cost method for
transmitting the files. I will only accept paper copies of files
that do not exist in readable electronic formats.

Please respond within 7 business days per N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(i).
Please transmit the materials to me as they become available,
rather than wait for all records to become available to dispense.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please contact
me.

Finally, please confirm receipt of this Open Public Records Act
request.

Sincerely,
Vanessa Levy
