The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records January 10, 2025 SPR24/3456 Diane Pelland Town Clerk Town of Swansea 81 Main Street Swansea, MA 02777 Dear Ms. Pelland: I have received the petition of Geraldine Mullaly appealing the response of the Town of Swansea (Town) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On December 6, 2024, Ms. Mullaly requested, “a copy of the completed/signed acknowledgement form/code of conduct and discipline policy for [three identified individuals.]” The Town provided a response on December 9, 2024. Unsatisfied with the Town’s response, Ms. Mullaly petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR24/3456, was opened as a result. Subsequently, the Town provided a supplemental response on January 10, 2025. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s December 9th response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Mullaly may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s January 10th response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Geraldine Mullaly 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
