Police Salary and Wages & Overtime
Dear Town of Dover,
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:
- All base salaries for employees of the Dover Police Department for the years 2019-2024.
- All overtime paid to employees of the Dover Police Department for the years 2019-2024, broken down by source (overtime paid by the Town vs. a third party) and reason for need.
- Emails between Chief Jon Delaney and Edward Ramirez related to minimum staffing.
- The email directive from February 2025 concerning approval of overtime by Mayor Dodd.
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,
