The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor ofR ecords June 25, 2018 SPRlS/904 Melissa P. McCarthy, Esq. KP Law 101 Arch Street Boston, MA 02110 Dear Attorney McCarthy: I have received the petition of Attorney Timothy Burke appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Dennis (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § lOA; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Attorney Burke requested records regarding a complaint for illegal dumping at an identified address. Having received no response, Attorney Burke 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 June 21, 2018. Whereas this matter was opened based upon the Town's failure to provide a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Attorney Burke may appeal the substantive nature of the Town's response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Attorney Timothy Burke 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
