Dear Elizabeth City,

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: March 27, 2025 letter from Executive Director William
Jones to Lieutenant Governor Tahesa Way, including and transmittal e-mail
sending the letter;

All e-mails sent to or from Executive Director William Jones between March
1, 2025 and the present day containing any of the following search terms:
Tabor, petition, objection Carvalho, Democratic and/or Democrat;

All written communications sent from anyone at the Housing Authority to
Richard Tabor from January 1, 2024 through present;
