The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor ofR ecords March 11, 2020 SPR20/0402 Suzanne Lemieux Town Clerk Town of Middlefield 188 Skyline Trail Middlefield, MA 01243 Dear Ms. Lemieux: I have received the petition of Jamie Truman appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Middlefield (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 1O A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1 ). Specifically, on January 15th, Ms. Truman requested "[l]ists of all accounts blocked by any official Middlefield Police Department social media page." Claiming to not yet have received a response, Ms. Truman 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 the Town provided Ms. Truman a response to her request on March 11, 2020. Whereas the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Town's lack ofresponse to Ms. Truman's request, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Truman may appeal the substantive nature of the Town's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, ~.~ Supervisor of Records cc: Jamie Truman 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
