accommodate a request for inspection or copying of documents, a special
service charge shall be imposed, in addition to the actual costs of
duplicating the record. A special service charge will also be applied
when the custodian changes the medium in which the record is normally
kept in order to comply with the request.
(2)
The special service charge shall be paid to the Borough
of Mendham at the following rates:
(a)
For all services performed by employees of the
Borough, the actual hourly rate of compensation for each clerical
and supervisory employee performing the service plus the copying or
reproduction cost and actual mailing cost, when applicable.

inspection where it is estimated that the records requested will cost
in excess of $5 to reproduce.
F.
For reasons of security, the use of a floppy disk,
CD, videotape or audiotape provided by the requestor is prohibited.
All electronic reproduction materials shall be supplied by the Borough
of Mendham.
G.
If the request for access to a government record would
substantially disrupt municipal operations, the custodian of the records
may deny access to the record after attempting to reach a reasonable
solution with the requestor that accommodates the interests of the
requestor and the municipality.
H.
In the event that the requestor of the documents objects
to any charges permitted by this article and no resolution of the
objection may be reasonably accomplished, the custodian of records
shall not incur any charges on behalf of the Borough to fulfill the
document request.
I.
Nothing in this section or any other ordinance of
the Borough shall be construed as requiring the Borough of Mendham
to furnish copies of any privileged documents or other documents which
have been determined to be exempt from the requirements of the Open
Public Records Act[1] or otherwise nondisclosable in accordance with any provision
of law.
