The request was successful.

Dear New Jersey Department of Education,

This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:

Monmouth County Executive Superintendent Email Log (Dr. Lester Richens) for the month of July 2023 - September 2023. I would like a report similar to the one you provided to Make Noise on October 4, 2023, for the Ocean County Superintendent. The report should be date stamped and page numbered.

To narrow this request down I only want emails regarding the Wall Twp. BOE "to" or "from" Lester Richens, Brian Smyth, Tracy Handerhan, Dawn Choma or Kim Keator to ensure this is returned well within 7 business days and not require an extension.

Regards,

Betsy Cross

Further to my OPRA below:

This specific OPRA is only for the "email log" not emails. I will submit a separate OPRA for actual emails.

Regards, Betsy Cross

Dear OPRA Custodian - New Jersey Department of Education,

I still await this reply from ORIGINAL request of 10/9/2023. You requested an extension until today and nothing has been returned.

I am trying to see if Lester Richens approved Rose Sirchio's contract and to date nothing has been provided under OPRA from your office and from the Wall BOE. No one will answer this simple question which is concerning.

Ms. Cross,

 

Attached please find records responsive to the above referenced request.
Please note, these records include any emails that included the search
term “Wall”. The emails have not been reviewed to determine whether emails
are regarding the Wall BOE, as opposed to emails containing that search
term for other reasons, such as being part of an email address or
signature.  If you would like the log narrowed to show only emails
regarding the Wall BOE, I will have to review the emails the same way I
would for a standard email search. Due to the volume of emails, such a
review would be unduly burdensome and substantially disruptive to the
DOE’s operations.  Accordingly, we would request that you modify the scope
of your request. 

 

A receipt indicating that your request has been closed, is also attached.
