Dear Pompton Lakes 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:

Maintenance/repair records and invoices of police vehicles from January 2021 to present, September 1, 2025, to include the Bloomingdale DPW and any outside vendors and/or garages/mechanics.

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,

Alexis Moore

Dear Kathy Troast,

The only messages visible on this OPRA thread include the original OPRA on 1 September and my follow-up query on 14 September. That said, Pompton Lakes is maintaining there is a cost to providing these invoices, which is in stark contrast to the professional OPRA reply of invoices that the town of Bloomingdale was able to send me expediently and in an organized manner. Given that there was a contract with Bloomingdale for maintenance, I question how much work and effort would be needed to include Bloomingdale work and purchase order invoices from other vendors.

The town is welcome to consider this OPRA closed and the GRC can handle the complaint which stems from this request, which is now just one of many complaints filed against the borough.
