The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records February 9, 2021 SPR21/0218 Nicole Glabach Town Clerk Town of Leyden 7 Brattleboro Road Leyden, MA 01301 Dear Ms. Glabach: I have received the petition of Todd Wallack of the Boston Globe appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Leyden (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On January 22, 2021, Mr. Wallack requested the “municipality voter rolls” within the possession of the Town. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Wallack petitioned this office and SPR21/0218 was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Town responded to Mr. Wallack’s request with a response sent on February 8, 2021 including the requested voter rolls. 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. Wallack 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: Todd Wallack 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
