Dear Franklin Lakes 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-5(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:

Pursuant to OPRA, I respectfully request copies of the following existing records concerning Franklin Lakes Police Department employee Denny Knubel, for the period January 1, 2023 through the present:

Duty schedules/rosters: Existing duty schedules, shift schedules, personnel rosters, or electronic scheduling records showing Mr. Knubel's scheduled work dates and start/end times.

Time and attendance records: Existing timesheets, timecards, electronic time entries, attendance records, or time-detail reports showing Mr. Knubel's actual dates and hours worked, including start/end times where maintained.

Overtime records: Existing overtime slips, overtime reports, electronic overtime entries, or payroll-detail records showing the date and hours of overtime worked, including start/end times where maintained.

Leave/time-off records: Existing payroll, attendance, timekeeping, or leave records showing the specific dates, type of leave, and number of hours on which Mr. Knubel used sick leave, vacation leave, personal leave, compensatory time, administrative leave, or other paid/unpaid leave.

This request does not seek medical records, diagnoses, doctor's notes, reasons for illness, or other confidential medical information.

Schedule adjustments: Existing records showing shift trades, swaps, changes of tour, schedule changes, early releases, or other modifications to Mr. Knubel's scheduled working hours.

Payroll time-detail records: Existing payroll or earnings-detail records showing the specific dates and hours for which Mr. Knubel was compensated, including regular and overtime hours.

To the extent responsive information is maintained electronically, I respectfully request the existing electronic report, export, spreadsheet, PDF, or other record containing the requested information. Native electronic or Excel/CSV format is preferred where available.

This request seeks existing government records only and does not ask the Borough to create a new record, perform calculations, compare records, or conduct research or analysis.

If no responsive records exist for a particular category, please advise accordingly. If exempt information is contained within an otherwise responsive record, please redact the exempt information and provide the remainder.

Electronic production is preferred.

Thank you for your assistance.

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.

Respectfully Submitted,

Michael O'Neill
