According to an "Important Notice" on its website, the Runnemede (Camden County) Board of Education "inadvertently published on its website" an unredacted version of its May 10, 2011 executive session minutes. The minutes, which have since been removed from the Board's website, were the subject of my September 29, 2011 post entitled "Do two OPRA requests constitute harassment?" The minutes are available on-line here.
The text of the "Important Notice" is set forth below and is available at the Board's site as well as here.

THE PUBLICATION OF THE MAY 10, 2011, MINUTES ON THE BOARD WEBSITE WAS A MISTAKE.
