Good Morning,
We are in receipt of your OPRA Request below which does not cite a specific document(s) but requests information.
FYI: When a Request seeks information or asks questions and does not identify specific government records, it is deemed “complex”. A request is “complex” because it fails to specifically identify the documents sought and that request is not “encompassed” by OPRA. See New Jersey Builders Association v. New Jersey Council on Affordable Housing, 390 N.J.Super. 166, 180 (App. Div. 2007). A proper request under OPRA must identify with reasonable clarity those documents that are desired, and a party cannot satisfy this requirement by simply requesting all of an agency's documents. See Bent v. Stafford Police Department, 381 N.J.Super. 30, 37 (App. Div. 2005).
Custodians are not required to conduct research or create new records in response to an OPRA request.
However, to assist your inquiry we have interpreted same as copy of Borough Resolution 21-10-21 Authorizing the Appointment of Deputy Borough Administrator, Nichole Horvath. We have no further document(s) responsive to your request for information.
Thank you,
