A small group of political opponents of the Hamilton Township mayor, including her challenger in the Republican primary, are flooding the township with hundreds of requests for records that cost $200,000 to process in 2018 alone.
Henderson says he and others have had to file the Open Public Record Act requests because the mayor will not allow any public record to be released without it.
Many documents are available on the township’s website, Yaede said.
Those include public tax records, budget information, department annual reports, township ordinances and codes, resolutions, certain reports, documents and maps.
The cost to process these requests was $200,000, the mayor said.
It costs the requestor 5 cents per page to obtain documents under OPRA regulations.
“David Henderson made at least 93 requests last year – and due to similarly-worded requests from anonymous individuals, that number could be much higher.” Yaede said.
Names include “James Hoffa” (aka Jimmy Hoffa), “Make Some Noise,” “Dump Yaede, “OPRA Hamilton NJ," “T Flaves” and “Liars N Bullies."
If the government pushes back and denies certain requests that only fuels residents suspicions and so they file more requests, he said.
“The role of government isn’t to resist that effort [to obtain documents], it is to assist people in getting that information,” Paff said.
