Kari Scytkowski v. South Hadley, Town of - Fire District (SPR 20230273)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records February 13, 2023 SPR23/0273 Terie B. Fleury Records Access Officer South Hadley Fire Department 144 Newton Street South Hadley, MA 01075 Dear Ms. Fleury: I have received the petition of Kari Scytkowski appealing the nonresponse of the South Hadley Fire Department (Department) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On January 25, 2023, Ms. Scytkowski requested “… a copy of the Budget Spreadsheet that was used at the Prudential Committee meeting on January 24, 2023.” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Ms. Scytkowski petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/0273, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided Ms. Scytkowski with a response dated February 13, 2023. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Department’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Scytkowski may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Kari Scytkowski 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
