Dear LTown United,
Your OPRA Request undated was received on 10/27/2021. I am forwarding the
request to the individual and department I believe may have documents
responsive to your request. Due to the large quantity of requests
received, an additional time of approximately 21 business days after
receipt of your request is needed to respond to your request, and would
anticipate providing a formal response on or before 11/30/2021.
If you have any questions in the interim, please do not hesitate to call
the Township Clerk, Glenn R. Turtletaub on his direct line (973)

Dear Livingston Township,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Open Public Records Act reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Livingston Township's handling of my OPRA request 'Emails to and from Patricia Devils'.
There is no way this request should take this long. This is a simple request of one person, Patricia Devils. Please provide this information in a timely manner.
Thanks.

Dear LTown United:
Thank you for your email of Thursday, October 28, 2021 at 6:21 p.m.,
requesting an 'internal review of Livingston Township's handling of my
OPRA request " as to your (undated) OPRA Request received on October 27,
2021 seeking:
" On October 30, 2021 Glenn Turtletaub received an email from Patricia
Devils. Please provide all communications to and from Patricia Devils
(based on the redacted email) with any town employee/official between
September 1, 2018 and present."
Please understand that it is not a "simple process" as you
characterize it, and in order to respond to your request it requires
extra time. First, the Township IT Manager must retrieve and provide
emails from Pat Sebold from January 1, 2020 to October 27, 2021, and
then once retrieved, those emails have to be imported into Outlook to
comply with your request. It is then necessary to cull out only the ones
which appear as "Patricia Devils". Then, the emails have to be
individually presented and scanned, after which they must be reviewed for
any necessary redaction. Then, the redactions themselves must be made
prior to providing responsive documents to you. The redaction process in
particular can only be handled by the Deputy Clerk, as is the only one in
the office who knows how to do the extraction into Outlook, the required
format. Additionally, her time is limited due to the pending Elections.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Glenn Turtletaub
Township Clerk

Dear L Town United:
This comes pursuant to your OPRA Request seeking:
"On October 30, 2019 Glenn Turtletaub received an email from Patricia
Devils. Please provide all communications to and from Patricia Devils
(based on the redacted email) with any town employee/official between
September 1, 2018 and present."
Please be advised that the only document responsive to your request is the
October 30, 2019 email that we previously provided to you, and to which
you referred in your request. If you wish us to send another copy, please
advise and we will do so.
Please also note that two emails which were captured during our search are
not subject to OPRA, as personal emails are not government records and
therefore not subject to disclosure under OPRA. See NJSA 47:1A-1.1;
Michelson v. Wyatt, 379 N.J. Super. 611, 619 (App. Div. 2005).
Thank you for your consideration.
