PSTs work assignments and pay

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Monmouth County should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Monmouth County,

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:
1. Do the PSTs assigned to a specific town work that town on a regular basis?
2. How much forced Overtime have PSTs had to work in 2024 and 2025?
3. How much Overtime has been paid to PSTs in 2024 and 2025?
4. Of the taxes Monmouth County collects from the municipalities and its residents, what percentage goes toward the Monmouth County Sheriff's Office 911 center?

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,

keith branning
