Lemieux Town Manager Town of Lunenburg 17 Main Street P. O. Box 135 Lunenburg, MA 01462 Dear Ms. Lemieux: I have received the petition of Cark Luck appealing the nonresponse of the Town of Lunenburg (Town) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On July 16, 2023, Mr. Luck requested the following records pertaining to the Town Board of Assessors (BOA) and Municipal Finance Services, LLC (MFS): [1.] …all data files provided to the BOA that resulted from the MFS contract from Lunenburg to inspect all lake front properties who requested abatements as a result of the 2023 tax assessment. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Luck petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/1897, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned the Town provided a response to Mr. Luck on August 22, 2023. Where 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. Luck may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s response within 90 days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Carl Luck 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
