The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records September 10,201 8 SPR18/1281 The Honorable Paul Heroux Mayor of Attleboro Attleboro City Hall - Office of the Mayor 77 Park Street Attleboro, MA 02703 Dear Mayor Heroux: I have received the petition of Roxanne Houghton appealing the response of the City of Attleboro (City) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, 5 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Ms. Houghton requested on August 8, 201 8 "copies of all emails" sent by the Mayor to the City Council President between July 2,201 8 to July 7, 201 8. Upon not receiving a response from the City, Ms. Houghton appealed to this office on August 24,201 8. Subsequent to the intervention by a member of the Public Records Division staff, this office was notified that a response was provided, dated August 24,201 8. Whereas this matter was opened based upon the City's failure to provide a response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Houghton may appeal the substantive nature of the City's See response within ninety days. 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Roxanne Houghton One Ashburton Place, Room 171 9, Boston, Massachusetts 02 108 (6 17) 727-2832. Fax: (61 7) 727-59 14 sec.state.ma.us/pre pre@sec.state.ma.us
