Good afternoon, 

 

This office is in receipt of your OPRA request dated May 27, 2020.
Attached please find documents responsive to paragraph 2 of your OPRA
request. Your request contained in paragraph 1 is denied insofar as it
requests the Township to compile a “list” containing various data. OPRA
only permits a requester to seek “identifiable government records.” MAG
Entertainment, LLC v. Division of ABC, 375 N.J. Super. 534, 546 (App. Div.
2005). OPRA “only allows requests for records, not requests for
information.” Bent v. Twp. of Stafford Police Dep’t, 381 N.J. Super 30, 37
(App. Div. 2005). “Wholesale requests for general information to be
analyzed, collated and compiled . . . are outside OPRA’s scope.” Burke v.
Brandes, 429 N.J. Super 169, 174 (App. Div. 2012) (emphasis added).

 

Please be advised that this is a full and complete response to your OPRA
request, and it is therefore deemed fulfilled and closed. Thank you.
