New Open Records Law
Pennsylvania
has a new open-records
law which greatly
expands public access to a wide array

2009, records from previous years are available as of that date.
The law provides that
requests be made in writing. Please click
here for the
necessary
form, which can be mailed, faxed, or dropped off at the Township Building.
Or, you may save the form and attach it to an e-mail directed to
openrecords@pocopson.org.
Please be advised that the Township has up to five days to fill requests.
