Subject: [EXTERNAL] OPRA request - Code Violation List Request

 

Dear Watchung 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 use the requested government records for a commercial purpose (Real
Estate).

 

 

 

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

 

 

 

Records requested:

 

Code Violation List Request for 07/28/2024 to 09/26/2024

 

I kindly request a list of all UNRESOLVED or OPEN code violations (please
do not include closed violations) for all properties in the city during
this time period, specifically related to property maintenance, structural
issues, and weeds. Please include descriptions of the violations, property
addresses, and violation dates.

 

 

 

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,

 

 

 

Evelyn
