Dear Mr. Smeretsky,
Thank you for sending the second portion of my request.
The first portion of my request was deemed "overly broad and vague." I would just like to point out that other similar requests for license indexes are fulfilled by townships throughout the state. For instance, OPRA requests are made for townships to provide a complete list of dog registration licenses and landlord licenses for the entire township with general information about each license (name/address/etc) and those requests are fulfilled and not deemed overly broad and vague.
I did not ask for the entirety of Ocean County. nor did I ask for 20 years of information (that perhaps could be deemed overly broad and vague). I asked specifically for just one township that you are responsible for, and for just the last 5 years of records for that township for all licenses issued from 2016-2020. With that being the case, would you reconsider and send the requested information?
Thank you for your time,
Resident
