Matt Magnarelli v. Burlington, Town of - Public Schools (SPR 20221626)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records July 28, 2022 SPR22/1626 Eric M. Conti, Ph.D. Superintendent Burlington Public Schools 123 Cambridge Street Burlington, MA 01803 Dear Superintendent Conti: I have received the petition of Matt Magnarelli appealing the nonresponse of the Burlington Public Schools (School) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Mr. Magnarelli requested, “…any emails that include correspondence between the above mentioned 3 public employees … from the Sept 1st, 2021, onward to the date 6/26/22.” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Mr. Magnarelli petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR22/1626, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the School provided Mr. Magnarelli with a response to his request dated July 14, 2022. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the School’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Magnarelli may appeal the substantive nature of the School’s response within 90 days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Matthew Magnarelli 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
