The Township of Livingston Clerk's Department is in receipt of your OPRA request. Pursuant to NJSA 47:1A-5(i), you shall receive a response in no more than seven (7) business days, with day one starting the day after the request has been received. (Holidays and Townhall closings do not count as business days).

Dear Nathan,

This comes in response to your follow up request on October 7, 2022  for
 "all individual arrest reports during the month of September 2022".

Please see the responsive arrest reports attached which have been redacted
pursuant to NJSA 47:1A-1, in which a public agency has a responsibility
and an obligation to safeguard from public access a citizen's personal
information with which it has been entrusted when disclosure thereof would
violate the citizen's reasonable expectation of privacy, and therefore
birth dates, emails, and phone numbers have been redacted. Pursuant to
NJSA 47:1A-1.1, driver license numbers and social security numbers have
been redacted.  Pursuant to Executive Order #69 and # 9 fingerprint cards,
plates and photographs and similar criminal investigation records that are
required to be made shall not be deemed to be public records and subject
to inspection, and therefore mug shots have been redacted.

The Police Department has informed us that one arrest report involves a
juvenile, and is therefore exempt under NJSA 2A-4A-602A:4A-60  (Disclosure
of juvenile information; penalties for disclosure.).  Also, please be
advised that there are approximately 20 arrest reports currently in review
and cannot be released at this time under NJSA 47:1A-1.1, as inter-agency,
intra-agency advisory, consultative and deliberative records. Please
submit another OPRA request at a later date and we will provide whatever
arrest reports are available at that time.
Sincerely,
  
Casey Kimmel
Clerk's Office
Township of Livingston
