Dear Tyara C. Conil,
The submission did not include any addresses or worksite information—please be sure to include those details.
Additionally, records for Certificates of Occupancy and Certificates of Continued Occupancy issued within the past 60 days will be sufficient for this request.
1. I have not been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.
2. I intend to use the requested government records for a commercial purpose. (extends to 14-day response, I'm ok with extension if needed)
3. I am not seeking these records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Thank you for your assistance.
Yours sincerely,
Salem
