2020 waste management contract
Dear Red Bank Borough,
This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
I am requesting documents reported by John Ward in Red Bank Green, using the OPRA process to ensure that the records used by John Ward have not been doctored.
I understand there may be some charges and will pay on request.
Records requested:
1. email chain that ends Jul 20 with the following from Ziad Shehady to Greg Cannon:
Re: garbage/recycling bids
Ziad Shehady <[email address]> Mon, Jul 20, 2020 at 11:18 AM
To: Gregory J Cannon <[email address]>
Bcc [ several others ]
Greg, I just learned that, as suspected there is some behind-the-scenes meddling. Apparently, he is relaying complaints from Tommy Delisa that either he has heard from him directly or through Maria
2. Letter from Delisa Waste Services to Red Bank Borough dated August 4, 2020
3. email from Ziad Shehady to Mayor August 4, 2020 at 2:56 PM

To: Mayor_Council <[email address]>, Pamela Borghi <[email address]>, Gregory J Cannon gcannon@ obelhan com
Mayor & Council,
I have asked Greg that we address this letter in Executive Session tomorrow. Also attached to this email is a PDF that contains a chain of emails with a member of Council that suspiciously and curiously includes very similar concerns & issues. It seems to me there is an effort to sabotage this bid process, which already included a process to address prospective bidder concerns or questions and included a mechanism for the Borough to issue an addendum to the RFP, but conveniently this letter has arrived after that timeframe.
Thank you,
Philip Blackwood
