Erin made this OPRA request to Sea Isle City Automatic anti-spam measures are in place for this older request. Please let us know if a further response is expected or if you are having trouble responding.

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Sea Isle City should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Sea Isle City,

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:

A list of all individuals currently receiving a police-related pension connected to service in the Sea Isle City Police Department, including—but not limited to—those receiving:

Regular service-retirement pensions, and

Disability pensions (including accidental or ordinary disability benefits).

For each pensioner, please provide:

Name

Type of pension (e.g., service retirement, accidental disability, ordinary disability)

Pension system (e.g., PFRS)

Date of retirement or date disability pension was approved

Final salary used for calculation (if maintained)

Current annual pension amount

Any cost-of-living adjustments applied (if maintained)

I request these records in electronic format (Excel, CSV, or PDF), whichever is readily available.

If any portion of the request is unclear or if responsive records may be provided in a more efficient format, please contact me so we can refine the scope as needed. If you determine certain information requires redaction under OPRA, please cite the specific statutory basis for each redaction and release the remaining non-exempt information.

Please notify me of any estimated fees prior to fulfilling this request.

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,

Concerned citizen of NJ
