Good morning,

This request seeks information or asks questions and does not identify specific government records. As such, your request is an invalid OPRA request. When a request is “complex” because it fails to specifically identify the documents sought, then that request is not “encompassed” by OPRA. See New Jersey Builders Association v. New Jersey Council on Affordable Housing, 390 N.J.Super. 166, 180 (App. Div. 2007). Custodians are not required to conduct research or create new records in response to an OPRA request.

Please note that the Borough does not maintain a list of open permits on each property within the Borough. As a one-time courtesy, I sent your request to our construction office this morning and you will find her response below. Going forward, please reach out to the Construction Office directly with these types of questions. Thank you.

Very truly,

Stephanie Sherwood, RMC, CMR
