The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor a/Records April 5, 2017 SPRl 7/394; SPRl 7/395 Rebecca Acerra Records Access Officer Town of Warren 48 High Street PO Box 609 Warren, MA 01083 Dear Ms. Acerra: I have received the petition of Brian Corriveau appealing the nomesponse of the Warren Records Access Officer to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66 § 1O A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Corriveau requested two (2) different categories ofrecords concerning renovations to Town Hall from two (2) separate departments within the Town of Warren. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Corriveau petitioned this office and two (2) appeals were opened as a result. Subsequent to intervention by a staff member of the Public Records Division, I learned that a representative from the Town, acting as liaison for the different departments within the Town provided Mr. Corriveau with a response for both of these inquiries dated February 3, 2017. In their response, the Town provided Mr. Corriveau with a fee estimate of $27.00. To date, the Town claims that Mr. Corriveau has not yet paid the fee to attain the records. Nonetheless, I find that the Town satisfied the obligation of providing Mr. Corriveau with a satisfactory response. Accordingly, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Corriveau may appeal the substantive nature of the Town's response within ninety (90) days. See C.M.R. 32.08(2). Sincerely, ~UIT~ Supervisor of Records cc: Brian Corriveau One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 • (617) 727-2832• Fax: (617) 727-5914 . sec.state.ma.us/pre • pre@sec.state.ma.us
