The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records December 17, 2018 SPRlS/1990 Hillary Conklin Town of Tisbury-Town Clerk 51 Spring Street P. 0. Box 1239 Vinyard Haven, MA 02568 Dear Ms. Conklin: I have received the petition of Patricia Mark appealing the response of the Town of Tisbury (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § lOA; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, on November 19, 2018, Ms. Mark requested the following records: • Complaint filed against Patricia Mark, former Administrative Secretary to the Tisbury Police Department by Lieutenant Eerik Meisner. • Report by Chief Arthur Parker (ret) of Billingsgate Associates LLC of Wellfleet, MA, that conducted the investigation pertaining to Lieutenant Eerik Meisner' s complaint both written and digital recorded. • All email correspondence and documentation between any Tisbury employee and Chief Arthur Parker pertaining to the complaint by Lieutenant Eerik Meisner. Subsequent to the intervention by a Public Records Division staff attorney, this office was notified that a response was provided, dated December 14, 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. Ms. Mark 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: Patricia Mark 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
