Dear Mr. Curcio:
The Township of Wall (“Township”) Records Custodian received your revised Open Public Records Act (“OPRA”) request on July 15, 2019. The Township is responding to your request within seven (7) business days after receipt of your request as required by New Jersey law. See N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5.
For ease of reference, your OPRA request seeks the following:
1. Job Openings listed in the water and tax department from 2015-2018;
With respect to your request seeking “Job Openings,” as a threshold matter, please be advised that your request is invalid because it fails to identify with reasonable clarity the specific government records sought. See Murphy v. N.J. Dept. of Corrections, GRC Complaint No. 2015-340. The request may not be a broad generic description of documents that requires the custodian to search the agency's files and "analyze, compile and collate" the requested information. Id.; See also Lagerkvist v. Office of Governor of State, 443 N.J. Super. 230, 237 (App. Div. 2015) (holding that OPRA does not convert a custodian into a researcher, which would have been the effect of the request).
Notwithstanding the invalid nature of your request, and without any waiver or prejudice to any objections to same, the Township has conducted a good faith search for potentially responsive records. Enclosed please find all records readily identified as responsive to your revised OPRA request.
In the link below, please find responsive documents to your request. Please note the link is set to expire on July 31, 2019

Your OPRA request is now deemed answered and closed. In the event of a clarification or appeal, Township reserves the right to raise any other ground for denial not raised in this response. The failure of Township to assert an exception or privilege at this time does not act as a waiver of any grounds for denial. Thank you for your professional courtesies and attention to this matter.
