I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Good afternoon,
I received your OPRA request on December 9, 2024 for “CAD Detail Reports with Officer narratives related to DUI/Theft arrest reports from 11/08/2024 to 11/15/2024." As such, the statutory deadline to respond to your request is on December 18, 2024. This response is being provided to you on the first (1st) day of the custodian’s receipt of the said request.
There are no records pertaining to your request.
If your request for access to a government record has been denied or unfulfilled within the seven (7) business days required by law, you have a right to challenge the decision by the Borough of Bergenfield to deny access. At your option, you may either institute a proceeding in the Superior Court of New Jersey or file a complaint with the Government Records Council (GRC) by completing the Denial of Access Complaint Form. You may contact the GRC by toll-free telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819, Trenton, NJ 08625, by e-mail at [email address], or at their website at www.state.nj.us/grc . The GRC can also answer other questions about the law. All questions regarding complaints filed in Superior Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your County.
Sincerely,
Marie
