This request has been withdrawn by the person who made it. There may be an explanation in the correspondence below.

Dear Lacey Township,

This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I certify under penalty of NJSA 2C:28-3 that I have not been convicted of an indictable offense. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:

Property tax appeals filed last 4 years and disposition of each case

Yours faithfully,

Jack Roberts

Veronica Laureigh, Lacey Township

Dear Mr. Roberts:
Please be advised that your OPRa request dated November 24th to the
Township requesting Property tax appeals filed last 4 years and
disposition of each case is voluminous and vague.  we ask for further
clarification as to the specific document you are requesting.  If it is in
fact the entire file, those files/records are in storage off-site.  There
are approximately 1500 file folders containing anywhere from 2 to 20 pages
of letter and legal sizes.  Complying this request would require an
extraordinary amount of staff time and resources and pursuant to NJSA
47:1A-5(c) we estimate that it will take approximately 60 hours to
retrieve, review, redact and reproduce the information requested.  As such
the estimated cost to provide this information would be $1,363.20 for
staff time plus copy costs of $690.00.
If you so desire us to proceed we would need a 50% deposit of the above
amounts.
please advise me of your intentions.
Thank you

Veronica Laureigh
