The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records September 16, 2024 SPR24/2509 Adam Lamontagne Town Administrator Town of Templeton Town Hall, Room 6 160 Patriots Road East Templeton, MA 01438 Dear Mr. Lamontagne: I have received the petition of Robert May appealing the response of the Town of Templeton (Town) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On August 21, 2024, Mr. May requested the following: [1] . . . a copy of … the most recent filing with the Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General. [2] I would also like verification by (your chosen means) on the specific agreement we, the Town of Templeton, has with this “Templeton Firesomething Association” and who is the contact person. The Town provided a response on August 21, 2024. Unsatisfied with the Town’s response, Mr. May petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR24/2509, was opened as a result. Subsequently, the Town provided a supplemental response on September 10, 2024. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s August 21st response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. May may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s September 10th response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Robert May 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
