Box 351 Rowley, MA 01969 Dear Ms. McClenaghan: I have received the petition of Timothy Toomey appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Rowley (Town) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On August 25, 2022, Mr. Toomey requested “… any and all information of authorized parking lots or parking areas in Rowley approved by the Planning Board or agent in the last 8 years.” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Mr. Toomey petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR22/2107, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Town provided Mr. Toomey with a response dated September 12, 2022. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Toomey may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Timothy Toomey 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
