Traffic Summons
Dear Oakland Borough,
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:
Total number of traffic summonses issued by OaklandPolice Department, total number of arrests of adults and junviles and total number of motor vehicle stops made by Oakland Police Department from 01/01/2026 to 03/31/2026
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,
Matthew Operations

Good Morning,
Please see attached regarding your OPRA request. Any redactions are due to
information being outside of what you requested, and for clarification,
calls for service are motor vehicle stops (1250). There is also 1 arrest
that occurred in April so total number from 1/1/26 to 3/31/26 is actually
35. Total summonses issued is 243. This request is now deemed answered and
closed.
