Dear Alicia  Jones, 
This comes in response to your request for:
This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law
right of access. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
  Records requested:
44 N Ashby Ave
BLOCK 1404   LOT 12" 
Is is too broad and not a valid request under the Open Public Records Act
(OPRA) as you have not identified the specific records you are seeking.  
 The Open Public Records Act deals with requests for readily identifiable
public records,.  The Custodian of Records is not supposed to perform
research to determine which documents exist, rather to make available to a
requestor specific records that have been identified.  Please identify the
documents you are seeking.  Do you need a list of Building Permits? 
Copies of the "Issued Building Permit Form?" or copies of the Building
Permit Application folder?   Or other records?
If you just need lists of open and closed building permits, the Building
Department keeps track of building permits in three systems.  The
"Construction Permit Summary Report" from our current building permit
tracking software SDL shows only the building permits listed under the
current block and lot number.   The "List of Applications" is from our
former software, Mitchell Humphreys Construction Project Manager and shows
the permits from 1997-June 2013.  Any permits that were closed out after
June 2013 will be closed in SDL and will show up on this report as open. 
The third report is the "Extract of Permits" which is a listing of all
building permits by street from 1946-1996.
Please clarify your request to identify which documents you seeking.  If
you are looking for lists of permits, it is suggested you use the names
that are in quotes in the paragraph above.  
In the future please be sure to request the proper name of the document(s)
 you are seeking when you submit an OPRA Request.  
Upon receipt of your request we have up to seven business days to respond
to a request, so for example your request received on October 25 would be
due by November 5, 2018.
Sincerely,
Renee Resky
