I WILL use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:

Good afternoon,
The Township needs additional time to gather the records for this request from the Building Department. I apologize for any inconvenience however I have been informed by the Fire Department that the software they are using to gather up information requested has been problematic and being worked on. They are anticipating the entire document by tomorrow. We should have these records sent over to you on or before 5/29/2025.
