The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records June 19, 2017 SPR17/784 Patrick T. Archbald Deputy Chief of Administration University ofMassachusetts Police Department 585 East Pleasant Street Amherst, MA 01003-9600 Dear Dep. Chief Archbald: I have received the petition of Michael J. Billiel appealing the nonresponse of the University of Massachusetts Police Department (Department) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66 § 1O A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1 ). Specifically, Mr. Billiel requested records pertaining to the "candidates list with the scores." Subsequent to the intervention by a member of the Public Records Division staff, I was informed that the Department had provided the response dated June 6, 2017. Since this appeal was opened based upon the Department's failure to respond to a request for public records, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Billiel may appeal the substantive nature of the Department's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08. Sincerely, ~~ Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Michael J. Billie!
