Marlene Berghammer Executive Director Contract
Dear Linden Housing Authority,
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:
Please provide a copy of the resolution appointing Marlene Berghammer as the agency's executive director, and a copy of the contract proposed by said resolution.
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 faithfully,
Charlie Kratovil
Dear Linden Housing Authority,

Thank you.

Good afternoon,
I wanted to update you on the status of your request. The Executive
Director and the Board are in the process of updating the contract based

Dear Ms. Sanders,
What about the resolutions? I requested the initial resolution hiring the ED on 2/10 and I've received nothing. Why can't that be provided immediately? Please also provide the resolution amending the contract ASAP.
Yours sincerely,
Charlie Kratovil
Dear Ms. Sanders,
The resolutions still have not been provided, nor has the contract. Do I have to sue the agency to obtain these public records?
Yours sincerely,
Charlie Kratovil
Dear Mr. Kratovil,
As I mentioned in my last email, once the contract is completed and
signed, I will be more than happy to provide you with a copy. But
unfortunately, I cannot give you something that, to the best of my
knowledge, is not completed. Once again, as soon as it's available I will
send it over.
Thank you,
Kathy
