claim by potential claimants against the Township, which notice will require
providing more detailed information to the Township pursuant to N.J.S.A. 59:8-6
in order that the Township may more completely investigate and evaluate potential
claims against it.
All notices of potential tort claims against the Township of Freehold
pursuant to the New Jersey Tort Claims Act (N.J.S.A. 59:8-1 et seq.) shall
be in the form attached hereto and made a part hereof.
All persons making claims against the Township of Freehold pursuant
to the New Jersey Tort Claims Act (N.J.S.A. 59:8-1 et seq.) are hereby required
to complete the form herein adopted as a condition of compliance with the
notice requirements of the New Jersey Tort Claims Act. Failure to file the
attached form, completed and executed, within the time prescribed by the New
Jersey Tort Claims Act, shall bar any further proceeding against the Township

New Jersey Tort Claims Act.
