Right-to-Know Request Filing Information and Form
(refer to the “Documents Tab” below)
The Town Orford has implemented a Right-To-Know Law filing information document and Request Form to assist the public and the town with Right-to-Know Law (“RTK”) requests. The form will help assure that the Town and requester understand the information being sought, and is available below under the “Document Tab” and at the Selectboard office. While state law does not require a written RTK request, written requests assure all parties have a verifiable copy of the request, and there is no confusion as to what is being requested. All official correspondences regarding RTK requests from the town will be in writing and strongly urge that all parties adhere to this practice.
Questions regarding this policy should be directed to Selectboard Administrative Asst. during regular business hours (Monday-Thursday; 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.) at orfordselectmen@orfordnh.us or #603-353-4889.
The actual text of the law is available here: www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rsa/html/NHTOC/NHTOC–VI–91–A.htm
