Dear Franklin Borough,

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 use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:
Tax Delinquent
- A list of all property addresses that have an unpaid property tax bill for the last 12 months. Please also include in the list or separately a list of properties whose property tax bill was liened against the property.

Water Shut Off / Utility Liens
- A list of all property addresses that have had their water bill liened against the property, have failed to pay their water bill, or have had the water shut off at any point in the last 12 months.

Fire Damage List
- A list of all property addresses that the fire department has received an emergency call to in the last 90 days.

Code Violation
- A list of property addresses that have received any code violations in the last 6 months

Vacant List
- A list of all properties that the city deems to be currently vacant or abandoned.

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,

Nathan

Mr. Stallone,
The Borough received your OPRA request on March 4, 2025 and on March 13,
2025 the Borough provided a partial response to the attached OPRA request
and requested an additional 5 business days for the remaining
responsive records.
Please see attached responsive records consisting of "Fire Damage List".
The Borough does not maintain a list of vacant/abandoned properties, as a
result there are no responsive records.
This concludes your request and the matter is now closed.
