Subject: OPRA request - Conversations / Transcriptions

Dear Town of Dover,

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 seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:

- Any and All town line telephone conversations and/ or transcripts between Town of Dover Mayor and Town of Dover Business Administrator from January 4, 2024 to September 4, 2025.
