The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records September 7, 2017 SPR17/ll91 Christine O'Donnell, Esq. Compliance Director & Staff Counsel Boston City Hall Boston City Council, 5th Floor Boston, MA 02201 Dear Attorney O'Donnell: I have received the petition of Don Saldad appealing the nonresponse of the Boston City Council (Council) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 1O A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Saklad requested the names/titles/positions of any and all staff of the office of Councilor Jackson at the Council. Having received no response, Mr. Saklad petitioned this office. Subsequent to the intervention by a member of the Public Records Division staff, this office was notified that a response was provided, dated August 31, 201 7. Whereas this matter was opened based upon the Council's failure to provide a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Saklad may appeal the substantive nature of the Council's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Don Saklad One AshbmionPlace, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 • (617) 727-2832• Fax: (617) 727-5914 sec.state.ma.us/pre • pre@sec.state.ma.us
