New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA)

The New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA) established two items important to people seeking local, county or state government information.  First, it provided a definition of what is considered a public government record.  Second, it established a process with timeframes for making formal requests for government records.  The following information below is provided for people seeking to make an OPRA request for Westampton governmental records.  This website provides general information only.

For additional information on OPRA requests please visit the Westampton Township website. To request a copy of a government record, please submit an Open Public Records Act Request Form specifying the record you seek. 

OPRA designates the Westampton Clerk as the official custodian of local government records.  You can pick up a request form at the Municipal Clerk's Office or send your request to the Township Clerk.  Again, please specify the exact document(s) you seek and your response will be on or before 7 days from date of request (excluding weekends and holiday).
