TIME-SENSITIVE OPRA Request – 99 Clifton Terrace, AKA 4216-4220 Park Ave, Weehawken, NJ – Block 51.01, Lot 35.02
Dear Weehawken 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:
Pursuant to OPRA, please provide electronic copies of the following existing records concerning the following property:
99 Clifton Terrace,
AKA 4216-4220 Park Ave,
Weehawken, NJ
(Block 51.01, Lot 35.02)
1. Rent Control: Current legal rent and most recent rent registration for each residential unit, including any approved rent adjustments, ADAM approvals, complaints, violations, or Rent Board determinations.
2. Violations / Safety: All currently open building, housing, zoning, property-maintenance, fire-safety, or construction violations, plus the most recent inspection reports.
3. Occupancy / Permits: Current Certificate of Occupancy or equivalent record, lawful number/type of residential and commercial units, and any open or unresolved permits.
4. Outstanding Matters: Any current summonses, fines, penalties, liens, unsafe-structure notices, or other municipal enforcement matters.
This request is time-sensitive because the property is scheduled for auction in early September 2026. **Please provide any readily available records as soon as possible, even if other items require additional time.**
Preferred delivery: electronic copies by email or download link.
Thank you very much for your assistance and for any effort you can make to expedite this request given the upcoming auction.
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,

Dear Ms. Fares,
Thank you for confirming.
Given that the requested records are needed for due diligence in advance of a September 9th auction, I would like to request the seven (7) business-day response period available for commercial-purpose requests under N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(i).
Please advise me of the applicable fee, if any, and how I can submit payment. I am happy to pay the permitted expedited-production charge promptly.
If some responsive records are readily available before then, I would also greatly appreciate receiving those records on a rolling basis.
Thank you very much for your assistance.
Best regards,
Isaac Cohen
