The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records April 1, 2021 SPR21/0722 Cara L. Dahill Town Clerk Carver Town Hall 108 Main Street Carver, MA 02330 Dear Ms. Dahill: I have received the petition of Mary Dormer appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Carver (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On March 4, 2021, Ms. Dormer requested various categories of records concerning the position of Head Cook & Facility Supervisor from October 2019 to present. Subsequent to the intervention by a staff member of the Public Records Division, I learned that the Town provided Ms. Dormer records responsive to her request. In an email dated March 24, 2021, the Town notes,“…the Town responded to this [request] on March 16th it was a huge packet answering many requests and providing quotes for additional documents that need to be further researched.” Conclusion In light of the Town’s March 24th letter, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Dormer 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: Mary Dormer 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
