Accordingly, the Town is hereby ordered to provide Ms. Farina with a response within ten business days. Said response shall be made in accordance with the Public Records Law, its Access Regulations and this order within ten business days. It is preferable to send an electronic copy of this response to this office at pre@sec.state.ma.us. Ms. Farina may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s response within ninety days.
