Dear Mounir Almaita,
This request was placed in November.
I would like a rationale for the continual extentions and a total lack of response for any records.
Your extentions have been continual with no explanation as to why you require them.
As you are aware, some of the records that were requested require that the custodian must ordinarily grant immediate access to budgets, bills, vouchers, and contracts.
Your failure to respond with any records over the last two months could be considered a denial!
As I am sure you are aware, a willful denial is a violation of law
I look forward to your responce

and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an

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

2. RFP or RFQ for Property Room Consulting
3. Reports created by Property Room Consulting
4. Scope of work to be performed by Property Room Consulting
5. Responce to RFP or RFQ for the scope of work performed by Property

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail

Dear Haledon Borough,
The documents which requested are public records subject to disclosure under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA), N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq.
Specifically, contracts with public entities are generally considered public records subject to OPRA. As the Appellate Division stated in Paff v. Galloway Tp. Bd. of Educ., 141 N.J. Super. 143, 147 (App. Div. 1976), “the public should have access to information about how its money is being spent.” While Paff predates OPRA, its principles regarding public access to government spending information remain relevant. OPRA itself reinforces this principle by broadly defining "government record" subject to access. Furthermore, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1.1 specifically defines "government record" to include "any contract... made, held, kept or entered into by or with an agency."
Similarly, RFPs and RFQs related to public bidding are generally considered public bid documents and are accessible under OPRA. The competitive bidding process is designed to be transparent, and making these documents available promotes accountability and public oversight. While there isn't a single case directly stating all RFPs/RFQs are public, the underlying principle of open government and access to information related to public expenditures supports their disclosure. The definition of "government record" under OPRA is broad enough to encompass such documents.
In addition, the records were requested under common law; the response from an unknown individual does not address the Common Law responce.
I look forward to your responce.
Paul
Hello Paul,
I reached out asking you what exactly you're requesting. I never received an answer from you to fulfill this request. Please clarify so that we can fulfill this Opra request.

Dear Haledon Borough,
Subject: Re: OPRA Request - [Insert Original Request Subject or Tracking Number] - Extension Request
I must reiterate that the records I am requesting fall under the category of "immediate access" records, as defined in N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(e). This statute mandates that for records not exceeding twenty-four (24) months old, the custodian must respond "immediately" with the requested information.
Therefore, a two-week extension is not permissible under the provisions of N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(e).
I respectfully request that you provide the responsive records immediately, as required by law. Please confirm receipt of this email and provide an estimated time for the immediate disclosure of the requested documents.
If you believe there is a legitimate reason why these records do not fall under the "immediate access" category, please provide a detailed explanation citing the specific statutory exemption you believe applies.
I look forward to your immediate compliance with my OPRA request.
Yours faithfully,
Paul
