[Adopted 9-5-2006 by Ord. No. 1221]
The Municipal Clerk is the custodian of the records and is authorized
to appoint deputy custodians as necessary.
Persons desiring to review or receive copies of government records held by the Borough of Haddon Heights shall complete the request form and present to the Borough Clerk during normal office hours. Prepayment of fees is required when the expected costs of copying exceeds $15. Records will normally be available for inspection within seven days of the request. In the event you disagree with any decision concerning your request, you have the right to file an appeal pursuant to N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq. In the event copies are requested, the charge listed in §
450-164 will apply. Whenever the requested documents cannot be reproduced by ordinary
means or whenever the request involves an extraordinary expenditure of time
and effort, there will be a special service charge based upon the actual direct
costs of providing the copies. An extraordinary expenditure of time or effort
shall be in circumstances where, in the opinion of the custodian, the time
involved in gathering the records will exceed two hours. In that event, the
special service charge shall be the number of estimated hours to compile and/or
copy the requested records times the normal hourly rate of the employee designated
to gather and/or copy such records. A deposit equal to this special service
charge plus the regular fees will be required to be posted. In the event that
the actual time is different that the estimate, additional payment or a refund,
as the case may be, shall be required. The custodian shall redact from any
record any social security number, credit number, unlisted telephone number
and/or driver's license number of any person.
