G. L. c. 66, § lOA; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Brown requested records concerning a certain location in Norfolk. Unsatisfied with the Town's response, Mr. Brown petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequent to the intervention by a staff member of the Public Records Division, I learned that a representative from the Town intends on providing Mr. Brown with a response to his appeal. Accordingly, I will consider this administrative appeal closed with the proviso that the Town provide Mr. Brown with a response within ten business days. It is preferable to send an electronic copy of this response to this office at pre@sec.state.ma.us. Mr. Brown may appeal the substantive nature of the Town's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S.
