The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records January 11, 2022 SPR21/3364 Melissa Noe Town Administrator Town of Monterey 435 Main Road P.O. Box 308 Monterey, MA 01245 Dear Ms. Noe: I have received the petition of Jon Sylbert appealing the response of the Town of Monterey (Town) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On December 13, 2021, Mr. Sylbert requested, “[a]ll communications—including texts and emails—between [named individuals] … since October 31, 2021.” On December 28 2021, the Town responded. Unsatisfied with the Town’s response, Mr. Sylbert petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR21/3364, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Town responded to Mr. Sylbert’s request with a response dated January 3, 2022. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s December 28th response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Sylbert may appeal the substantive nature of the Town's response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, ,, .· . ', , _-___ ' - ~ Rebecca S.
