A digital copy of the most recently approved memorandum of ALL collective bargaining units with which the township, city, borough, etc., currently holds active agreements.

Thank you for your attention to this request.

Good afternoon,
Your OPRA request has been denied as it is overly broad. When
submitting an OPRA request please be sure to include a date range
and specific documents. You can send your revised request to
[Marlboro Township request email]
As a threshold matter, please be advised that your request is
invalid because it fails to identify with reasonable clarity the
specific government records sought within a date range. See Murphy
v. N.J. Dept. of Corrections, GRC Complaint No. 2015-340. The
request may not be a broad generic description of documents that
requires the custodian to search the agency's files and "analyze,
compile and collate" the requested information. Id.; See also
Lagerkvist v. Office of Governor of State, 443 N.J. Super. 230,
237 (App. Div. 2015) (holding that OPRA does not convert a
custodian into a researcher, which would have been the effect of
the request).
Thank you.
