Rory Moore made this OPRA request to Nutley Township This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.
Dear Nutley Township,
This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:
"OPRA's clear purpose . . . is 'to maximize public knowledge about public affairs in order to ensure an informed citizenry and to minimize the evils inherent in a secluded process.'" Educ. Law Ctr. v. N.J. Dep't of Educ., 198 N.J. 274, 284 (2009) (quoting Mason v. City of Hoboken, 196 N.J. 51, 64 (2008)).
The Nutley Town Clerk testified in open Court that the Nutley Town hall has a special Nutley police patrols to prevent Rory Moore from entering the bidding and has had to have special swipe cards to prevent Rory Moore from entering the public building as The Nutley Town Clerk is prettified of violence to be initiated by Rory Moore.
Eleni Pettas, the Nutley Municipal Clerk, has a special parking space next to the side door and has to enter the building one hour before the Town Hall is open to the public as she is in fear that Rory Moore will attack her, violently.
Rory Moore, being banned, from the public build demands Eleni Pettas, the Nutley Municipal Clerk has nothing to do with all OPRA request and any additional request submitted by Rory Moore as Moore is in fear of his life for life for making a public request.
Hence, Rory Moore request be answered in strict compliance with New Jersey State law of seven days and in an excel file or Microsoft word document AT ALL TIMES.
This request is to cease the OPRA request that are intentionally answered with PDF files that cannot be opened up and unanswered OPRA request sent with the intent to aggravate Rory Moore.
Rory Moore had to file a criminal complaint as Eleni Pettas the Nutley Municipal Clerk intentionally files OPRA request with intent to exacerbate Rory Moore’s heart condition.
I seek the complete, current salaries for all employees, full time, part time, salaried, union, temporary, and or vendors. I want the response to be in an excel file. The request is expected in seven days.
Yours faithfully, Rory Moore

Mr. Moore,
This correspondence shall serve as the Township of Nutley’s (the
“Township”) response to your request for access to government records
pursuant to the Open Public Records Act, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1.1, et seq.
(“OPRA”), which was sent on November 16, 2020. Below are the Township’s
responses to each request.
1. “I seek the complete current salaries for all employees, full time,
part time, salaried, union, temporary and or vendors. I want the
response to be in an excel file. The request is expected in seven
days”. Pursuant to OPRA, “a custodian of a government record shall
grant access to a government record or deny a request for access to a
government record as soon as possible, but not later than seven
business days after receiving the request, provided that the record is
currently available and not in storage or archived. N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5
(emphasis added). Moreover, pursuant to P.L. 2020, c. 10, the State
Legislature extended OPRA timelines due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Accordingly, the deadline by which the Custodian must respond to an
OPRA request is governed by statute and is not dictated by the
requestor. Please see the attached responsive records.
To the extent that you have also requested access to the above government
records under the common law, your stated interest in obtaining the
records must be balanced against the Township of Nutley’s interest in
nondisclosure. See Loigman v. Kimmelman, 102 N.J. 98 (1986). The
foregoing response to your request for access to government records
incorporates the aforementioned balancing test. Please note that "a
party's status as a litigant does not enlarge its access to government
records under OPRA”. MAG Entm't, LLC v. Div. of Alcoholic Beverage
Control, 375 N.J. Super. 534, 545-46 (App. Div. 2005). The Township of
Nutley reserves the right to raise any other grounds for denial not raised
in this response. Failure of the Township of Nutley to assert an
exemption or privilege does not act as a waiver of any grounds for denial.
Furthermore, a reviewing Court or the Government Records Council ("GRC")
may deem a denial of access to be authorized on grounds other that those
advanced by a custodian. See Paff v. Twp. of Plainsboro, A-2122-05T2,
2007 WL 957289, at *2 (App. Div., Apr. 2, 2007), affirming, Paff v.
Township of Plainsboro, GRC Complaint No. 2005-29 (March 2006). If your
request for access to a government record has been denied or unfilled, you
have a right to challenge the decision by the Township of Nutley to deny
access. At your option, you may either initiate a proceeding in the
Superior Court of New Jersey or file a complaint with the GRC by
completing the Denial of Access Complaint Form. You may contact the GRC
by toll-free telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819, Trenton,
NJ, 08625, by e-mail at [1][email address], or on its website at
[2]www.state.nj.us/grc. The GRC can also answer other questions about the
law. All questions regarding complaints filed in Superior Court should be
directed to the Court Clerk in your County.
Sincerely,
Ceci Tramontana, RMC
