Request for records related to police vehicle purchasing.
Dear Chatham Township,
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-5(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: Copies of all estimates, quotes, invoices, and purchase orders related to the purchase of, installation, upfitting, etc., of all Chatham Township Police vehicles for the years 2024, 2025, and 2026.
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,
Jasper Ravencroft
Please see the attached. Let me know if you need anything else.
Thanks,
Greg LaConte
Township Clerk
Dear Gregory Laconte,
You have only included documents related to the purchase of the vehicles. I also requested documents related to the upfit, installation, supply, etc of the emergency equipment installed in the vehicles by the townships vendors.
Yours sincerely,
Jasper Ravencroft
Attached is the additional documentation.
For 2025 purchases, they are unmarked administrative cars that did not get sent out for additional equipment.
Thanks,
Greg...
