The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records December 7, 2021 SPR21/3077 Beth A. Oldmixon, Esq. Assistant City Solicitor Office of the City Solicitor City of Beverly 191 Cabot St. Beverly, MA 01915 Dear Attorney Oldmixon: I have received the petition of Jim Younger appealing the response of the City of Beverly (City) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On November 15, 2021, Mr. Younger requested, “permission to view a complete copy of the project as titled [Beverly Regional Transmission Reliability Project N-192 Cable Replacement].” The City provided a response on November 18, 2021. Unsatisfied with the City’s response, Mr. Younger petitioned this office, and SPR21/3077 was opened as a result. Subsequent to the opening of this appeal, the City provided a supplemental response to Mr. Younger and this office on December 7, 2021. Given that this appeal was opened based on the November 18th response, I will consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Younger may appeal the substantive nature of the City’s November 18th response within 90 days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Jim Younger Stephanie M.
