 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Montgomery County Judge Denies Temporary Injunction in Right-to-Know Case

Upper Pottsgrove Township, PA – The Upper Pottsgrove Board of Commissioners announced today that their request for a temporary injunction against a resident accused of abusing the state’s Right-to-Know law has been denied. Montgomery County Judge Saltz declined to grant the temporary injunction in the case of Upper Pottsgrove Township v. Matthew E. Murray, citing a narrowly defined interpretation of the law.

The Township had sought the injunction in an effort to mitigate escalating legal expenses resulting from more than 100 Right-to-Know requests submitted by a single individual. To date, responding to these requests has consumed significant municipal resources and incurred over $55,000 in legal fees.

“On behalf of our taxpayers, Upper Pottsgrove Township pursued this temporary injunction to halt the unsustainable drain on public funds until a permanent resolution could be reached,” stated Township officials.

Despite this setback, the Township remains committed to seeking a permanent injunction through the Court of Common Pleas. Officials emphasized their dual commitment to honoring transparency obligations under the law and safeguarding taxpayer resources from potential misuse.

Next Steps: Upper Pottsgrove Township will await further proceedings as the case moves forward. Officials reaffirm their dedication to protecting the community’s financial interests while upholding the integrity of public governance.

Please be advised that this week, the Township will begin work on the first stage of the municipal complex that the Board of Commissioners approved in August of 2022. The work is the first stage of the design and will consist of emplacing a parking lot as well as recreational and aesthetic supporting items. The Township’s Public Works Department will perform the task as they have with other parking lots in the Township property.

Public Sewer Rate Changes for Upper Pottsgrove Customers ~ The PA Public Utility Commission recently approved a wastewater rate increase for Pennsylvania American Water, effective Jan. 28, 2023. The average monthly residential wastewater bill for Upper Pottsgrove customers increased by $41.00 (63.1%). Following the company’s acquisition of the Upper Pottsgrove wastewater system, the company maintained Upper Pottsgrove’s prior rates until new company rates took effect. The increase makes Pottsgrove’s wastewater rates more consistent with Pennsylvania American Water’s existing base wastewater rate structure.
