Good morning,

Montague Township is in receipt of your Open Public Records Act Request
(OPRA) dated December 27, 2022, and received in my office on January 3,
2023, requesting the following:

 1. Does the city/town assign your municipal liens (Answer: Yes, they
will.)
 2. Can we have a list of all tax lien investors (Attached)
 3. Can we have a list of all properties that are in bankruptcy (Attached)
 4. Can we have a list of all properties that have liens on them dating
back to 2002 until current day (Attached)
 5. Can we have a list of all properties that are in probate (The Township
of Montague does not keep such a list. If you reach out to the County
of Sussex they will be able to assist you in this request as they keep
these records. Therefore, the Township of Montague denies request #5
as no record exists see Pusterhofer v. N.J. Dep’t of Educ., GRC
Complaint No. 2005-49.
 6. Can we have a list of all vacant and abandoned properties. (Attached)

This response is being provided to you on the third business day after
receipt in my office.

Your request was forwarded to our Tax Collectors Office and the Township
Code Enforcement Officer and they provided me with the attachment in
response to your request.  As the documents are being provided to you by
e-mail, there is no charge for them.

If your request for access to a government record has been denied or
unfilled within the seven (7) business days required by law, you have a
right to challenge the denial of access. At your option, you may either
institute a proceeding in the Superior Court of New Jersey or file a
complaint with the Government Records Council by completing the Denial of
Access Complaint Form.  You may contact the Government Records Council by
toll-free telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819, Trenton, NJ,
08625, by e-mail at [email address], or at their web site at
www.state.nj.us/grc. The Government Records Council can also answer other
questions about the law.  All questions regarding complaints filed in
Superior Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your County.

By way of this e-mail, your OPRA request is now closed out.
