Update : Construction permits
Dear Scotch Plains 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:
Last week i filed an OPRA request and I would like to clarify my original request of all permit issued to “C. Cueto” or “Christian Cueto” etc…
That name is not for the “Name of Owner in fee” but instead it is for the “principal contractor” in line 4 of the construction permit applications.
In addition i woould like to clarify the specific records I am requesting for each permit, as listed below:
- Construction Permit Application
- Certification in Lieu of oath
- Construction Permit
- Fire Protection Subcode application and Permit (if one was applied for and issued)
- Copies of professional licences submittted to you agency by application issued by NJ DEP
- Any communication/paperwork submitted by contractor or subcontractor requesting inspections and submitting proof of proper disposal of removed tank,
- any and all other records available attached to said permit
I apoligize if this caused any confusion or extra work on your part.
Yours faithfully,
Antonio M.
Received, thank you!

Dear OPRA,
First, let me thank you for your prompt response.
Also, I would like to clarify something about your response. In my request I was also looking for communication sent to your township with proof of proper disposal of the removed tank, Which is required when underground oil tanks are removed.
Are you able to either advise me that your township does not require or keep such proof as part of the construction permits or if such documents do exist, can you please send them to me as they were part of my original request?
Thank you
Yours sincerely,
Antonio M.
Antonio M:
Per our telephone conversation just now:
