Engineering invoices to West Cape May Borough for the proposed pedestrian bridge
Dear West Cape May 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-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 NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
Copies of any and all engineering invoices received or proposed from any and all engineering firms, including but not limited to, Remington and Vernick Engineers, for the proposed pedestrian bridge located adjacent to First Avenue, the project recently described as a joint project between the City of Cape May and the Borough of West Cape May, NJ.
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.
Yours truly,
Michael Rafone
