Dear Ramsey 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 NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.

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

Records requested: any OPRA request filed between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2022 with the borough of Ramsey or the Ramsey Police Department.
Confirmation of who authorized the release or non-disclosure of those records requested.

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,
John Doe

Messers Doe and Peterson,

Please be more specific in what you are looking for in your request of OPRAs.

In addition, your request of "Confirmation of who authorized the release or non-disclosure of those records requested" is not a government record, therefore no requirement that the identity of the individual(s) be maintained.

Very truly yours,

Meredith Bendian, RMC
Borough Clerk
Borough of Ramsey
