Need vacant lot fees
Dear Rahway 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:
Hello,
Is this property BLOCK 33 LOT 25 - 174 JENSEN AVE registered as vacant/abandoned or foreclosed?
If so, please provide any open/due/paid Vacant/Abandoned Property Registration Fees and the dates those fees cover.
Thanks
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,
KOZIOL LUKASZ
This OPRA request has been received on Thursday, September 12, 2024. It will be
reviewed and processed. A response will be sent within seven (7) business
days after the City's custodian of records receives the request.
Please note that a proper OPRA request must identify with reasonable clarity the
records desired. OPRA submissions which request all of an agency's documents,
seek information (and not records), or ask questions are not proper
requests. See Bent v. Stafford Police Department, 381 N.J. Super. 30, 37
(App. Div. 2005). In addition, record custodians are not required to conduct
research or create new records in response to an OPRA request. You will be
notified if your OPRA request requires clarification or is non-conforming.
Please contact this office should you require further guidance.
Sincerely,
OPRA
City of Rahway
