Right to Know

Pennsylvania codified a citizen’s right to access government records in Act 3 of 2008, called the Right to Know (RTK) Law. This law also established the state Office of Open Records. The law governs the release of records, not answering questions.  A record is defined as “any information regardless of its physical form or character that documents a transaction or activity of an agency and is created, received, or retained pursuant to law or in connection with a transaction, business or activity of an agency.”

Sandycreek Township provides open access to the public records of the Township in accordance with the Right to Know law.    Citizens need only complete an RTK Request Form to receive a public record.  A request may be made in person or by mail, email, or fax.
