Good afternoon,
In response to your OPRA request, the Tax Collector has advised:
There are no delinquent taxes at this time because on 12/22/2022, the City
had an accelerated tax sale, which included everything that is delinquent
(taxes, sewer, water, violations, etc.). After this accelerated sale,
there are currently no delinquent properties. Generally, the tax sale is
every December.
Best Regards,
City of Orange Township

Dear Tamara Robinson,
Thank you for the information on delinquent tax. My request also includes those properties which are not delinquent but have violation such as
- Fire damage, overgrown grass, overgrown weeds, junk, boarded houses/windows, vacant properties.
- Condemned properties
- All properties with notices of abatement
Thank you in advance
Yours sincerely,
Vane
There is no list that exist in City Hall with delinquent code violations. OPRA requests are used to obtain specific public records, not documents that have to be created.
The Code Enforcement Office has advised me that the City abated open code violations since COVID and the inspectors have not been out to do code violation surveys. If there is a specific address that you would like to check to see if there are code violations, the Code Enforcement Office can respond to that, but I have been advised that there is no list of properties with code violations because no such list exist and cannot be created.

Dear Tamara Robinson,
I appreciate your help. My request included street addresses and i see this list only includes the Block lot and Qual. Could the list please be updated to include street addresses. Thank you in advance.
Yours sincerely,

Good morning,
The way that the Tax Collector's system is set up, this is the way the report is generated. You can reach out to the Tax Collector's Office if you are interested in looking up specific street addresses/blocks & lots, however, the Clerk's Office is not able to provide street addresses for block and lot numbers.
The Tax Collector's Office can be reached at [email address] or (973)952-6105. Thank you.
