Dear Old Tappan Borough,

Under the Open Public Records Act (OPRA), I am requesting access to records held by the Old Tappan Licensing and Inspections Department regarding all laundromats operating within the Borough of Old Tappan.

Specifically, I would like to request a list of all licensed laundromats in Old Tappan, including their addresses and contact information, as well as any records of inspections conducted on these premises over the last five years.

I would prefer to receive this information electronically if possible, and if there are any fees associated with fulfilling this request, please let me know.

If you require any additional information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I can be reached at my email

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

(This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.)

Sincerely,
Lance Sexton

Laundromats in Old Tappan

Dear Jean M. Donch,

Thank you for your response regarding my inquiry about laundromats in Old Tappan. I appreciate your prompt reply. However, I would like to seek further clarification and provide additional context to ensure we are on the same page.

1. Records of Laundromats: Could you kindly confirm whether there are absolutely no records or information available regarding laundromats within Old Tappan? My objective is to gather comprehensive information about the presence and operation of laundromats in the area.

2. Licensing Requirement: While I understand that a specific license may not be required to establish a laundromat, are there any other types of permits or registrations that laundromat owners/operators are expected to obtain or comply with? This could include zoning permits, business registrations, or health and safety regulations.

I am particularly interested in obtaining information about the number of laundromats currently operating in Old Tappan, their addresses, and contact details. If there are any resources or departments you can direct me to for obtaining such information, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,
Lance Sexton
