During a three month period, Westfield resident Brooks Doyne filed 45 OPRA (Open Public Records Requests) with the Westfield town clerk seeking information on a number of municipal issues from parking meter revenue, DPW overtime hours worked, to emails between town officials and PSE&G.
The OPRA requests have generated over 1400 pages of documents by the town.
The information sought required countless hours of research to compile a response owed to the requester within 7 business days. There is often attorney review required to assure that the town’s response to the OPRA request does not violate any confidentiality statutes.
The person requesting the information has touted his relationship with two sitting town council members and his disdain for Mayor Shelley Brindle’s 2017 election victory where democrats swept the local municipal election.
The cost of responding to the OPRA requests has caused the town to incur expenditures at a time when Westfield Town Councilwoman JoAnn Neylan continues to vote “no” on this year’s proposed budget and the spending of any surplus on capital improvement projects and equipment.
TFoTM wonders if Neylan approves of the expenditures incurred by the magnitude of OPRA requests submitted by an individual claiming to be in contact with her parties representatives at a time when locals campaigns are gearing up for November’s elections.
The OPRA request featured below required 114 pages in the town’s response

ReplyDeleteI find it ironic that Greg Kasko is posting something about frivolous OPRA requests. Hahahaha. LMFAO.
ReplyDeleteAny OPRA request submitted by TFoTM was to obtain information that Mayor Skibitsky and his administration refused to provide when asked during open public comment at town council meetings.
DeleteEach request had a purpose, including the request for information regarding disgraced police chief David Wayman’s hit & run accident covered up by his subordinate Leonard Lugo.
Mr. Doyne filed 45 requests in a 3 month period, generating over 1400 pages in response by the town clerk, for reasons he states is purely to “obtain information.”
Mr. Doyne has stated his disdain for Mayor Brindle after a block party during the campaign season in 2017, and he has not done anything with the information he has obtained, nor did he first approach the town council or his council representative, seeking the information which they can obtain.
Instead, he has caused the town clerk and other employees to respond to his requests at the cost of the taxpayer.
I miss Kasko questioning Skibitsky at town council meetings. Kasko never asked a question he didn’t already have the answer to and Skibitsky knew it. That’s why Skibitsky remained quiet. Keep up the great work tfotm holding town accountable.
ReplyDeleteOPRA request how many times Wayman’s sexatary took extended lunch breaks with liquor thief Dave.
ReplyDeleteHow could you betray me baby zod! I raised you on my own in the conservation center, even taking the heat for you crashing the plow truck when I was teaching you to drive!
