Chief of Police Contract
Dear Lakehurst Borough,
Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.
I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.
I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
A digital copy of the three most recent approved contracts between the borough and Chief of Police, which should include up to the current active agreements.
Please include the most recent contract booklet (signed or unsigned), the most recent memorandum of agreement, salary guides, and any sidebar agreements, if applicable.
Thank you for your attention to this request.
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.
Yours faithfully,
John Smith
Good afternoon John,
In response to your OPRA request, I have attached the past three police chief contracts. As you will see there is an overlap, this is because Police Chief Higgins retired December 31, 2019; therefore, a new contract was written for the new Police Chief Kline.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you,
Maryanne Capasso, RMC
Municipal Clerk
Borough of Lakehurst
5 Union Avenue
Lakehurst, N J 08733
(732)657-4141 Ext. 102
