The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records April 5, 2023 SPR23/0575 Valerie Connolly Records Access Officer Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth Administrative Services Division 1 Ashburton Place, Room 1710 Boston, MA 02108 Dear Ms. Connolly: I have received the petition of Dirk Greineder appealing the nonresponse of the Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth (Office) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On March 1, 2023, Mr. Greineder requested, “… a copy of the new MA State House and Senate Legislative Election Districts following redistricting after the 2020 census [and] listing of legislators by city and town.” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Mr. Greineder petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/0575, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Office provided Mr. Greineder with a response dated March 31, 2023. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Office’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Greineder may appeal the substantive nature of the Office’s March 31st response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Dirk Greineder 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
