The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records March 14, 2023 SPR23/0395 Alexandra Hayden Records Access Officer Chelmsford Police Department 2 Olde North Road Chelmsford, MA 01824 Dear Ms. Hayden: I have received the petition of Stanley Mazurczyk appealing the response of the Chelmsford Police Department (Department) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On September 14, 2022, Mr. Mazurczyk requested “[e]mails [a named person] or any other Department member exchanged with Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission (MPAC) … [a named person] or any other MPAC member from July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021.” Prior Appeal The requested records were the subject of a prior appeal. See SPR22/2905 Determination of the Supervisor of Records (January 5, 2023). The Department provided a response on January 19, 2023. Unsatisfied with the Department’s response, Mr. Mazurczyk petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/0395, was opened as a result. Based upon a conversation between a Public Records Division senior attorney and a Department representative, it is my understanding that the Department intends on providing a further response to Mr. Mazurczyk. Accordingly, the Department is ordered to provide Mr. Mazurczyk with said response in a manner consistent with the Public Records Law and its Regulations within 10 business days. A copy of any such response must be provided to this office. It is preferable to send an electronic copy of this response to this office at pre@sec.state.ma.us. Mr. Mazurczyk may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1).
