Dear Zoning Officer,
Pursuant to the New Jersey Open Public Records Act (N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq.), I am requesting access to the following public records:
1. Any and all records, complaints, reports, or communications (including emails, phone logs, or internal memos) received by the Zoning Department that led to the issuance of the Notice of Abatement dated July 1, 2025, regarding a POD (temporary storage unit) at 13 Ferndale Place, Pompton Plains, NJ 07444.
2. The identity of the individual(s) or entity who reported or submitted the complaint that initiated the zoning inspection and violation notice.
3. A copy of any inspection notes, photos, or reports from the inspection conducted on or around July 1, 2025, at the above property.

Please provide the requested records in electronic format if available. If any part of this request is denied, please provide the specific legal basis for the denial as required by law.

For context and clarity, I am particularly seeking to determine whether the zoning complaint was submitted by any party affiliated with the property, including Paul or Margaret Passaro, due to concurrent legal proceedings regarding the contents of the POD.
