Carlo Cellai v. Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission (SPR 20211160)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records May 18, 2021 SPR21/1160 Kris C. Foster, Esq. General Counsel Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission 95 Fourth Street, Suite 3 Chelsea, Massachusetts 02150 Dear Attorney Foster: I have received the petition of Attorney Carlo Cellai appealing the response of the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission (ABCC) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On May 6, 2021, Attorney Cellai requested “[a]ny and all rules, regulations, directives, policies, ordinances and/or by-laws which precludes any one property from obtaining more than one liquor license.” ABCC provided a response on May 6, 2021. Unsatisfied with ABCC’s response, Attorney Cellai petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR21/1160, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned on May 18, 2021 via email that the ABCC provided Attorney Cellai with a response on May 14, 2021. In light of this response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Attorney Cellai may appeal the substantive nature of the ABCC’s May 14th response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Carlo Cellai, Esq.
