Dear Ms. Sanchez,
I tried to call you at the number in your message, but it went to voicemail and said the voicemail was full.
Can you please contact me at 732-993-9697? I don't think an extension is appropriate as the President's contract should be an immediate access document under the OPRA. What is your reason for the delay?
Yours sincerely,
Charlie Kratovil
