Williams Supervisor of Records December 19,2016 SPR16/1152 Mark Duphily Chief of Police Carver Police Department 112 Main Street B Carver MA, 02330 Dear Chief Duphily: I have received the petition of Mark Kaminsky appealing the response of the Town of Carver Police Department (Department) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66 § 1O (b ); see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(2). Specifically, Mr. Kaminsky requested copies of seven (7) categories of reports pertaining to incidents investigated by the Department. This request was the subject of a previous appeal. See SPR16/998 Determination of the Supervisor of Records (November 10, 20 16). In a response to this Determination, the Department provided Mr. Kaminsky with records he deems nomesponsive to his request. I understand a member of my staff contacted your office about this matter and provided you with a copy of the file related to this appeal. You indicated the Department would provide Mr. Kaminsky with a supplemental response regarding this matter. Accordingly, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed with the proviso that the Department provide Mr. Kaminsky with a supplemental response to his request made in accordance with the Public Records Law and its Regulations. Mr. Kaminsky may appeal the substantive nature of the Department's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C .R 3 .08(2). cc: Mark Kaminsky One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 (617) 727-2832o Fax: (617) 727-5914 o sec.state.ma.us/pre pre@sec.state.ma.us o
