The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records July 6, 2020 SPR20/1032 Lori A. Smith Town of Dudley, Town Clerk 71 W. Main Street Dudley, MA 01571 Dear Ms. Smith: I have received the petition of David Durgin appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Dudley (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Durgin requested several categories of records within the possession of the Town. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Durgin petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequent to the request for an appeal, I learned that the Town responded to Mr. Durgin’s request with a response sent on July 2, 2020. Whereas the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Durgin may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: David Durgin 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
