Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is a state law that generally provides that any person has a right to obtain access to public records, unless the records are protected from disclosure by one of nine FOIA exemptions contained in the statute.

A request for inspection and/or copies of public records must be made in writing by completing the attached FOIA form (click Seneca Township FOIA  and make a copy of the form) and may be submitted by mail to 16506 Garden Valley Road, or email directed to the township’s Freedom of Information Officer at clerk@senecatownship.com.   Requests will be addressed within 5 business days.

Note:  If the information requested is a large file, the Clerk may, at their discretion, extend the search period an additional 5 business days.

If the FOIA request is extensive, fees may apply.
