Newell Chief of Police Southborough Police Department 32 Cordaville Road Southborough, MA 01772 Dear Chief Newell: I have received the petition of Christopher Bianchi appealing the response of the Southborough 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 January 27, 2025, Mr. Bianchi requested a police report involving himself related to an incident that occurred in 2009. The Department provided a response on February 10, 2025. Unsatisfied with the Department’s response, Mr. Bianchi petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR25/0461, was opened as a result. Subsequently, the Department provided a supplemental response on February 20, 2025. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Department’s February 10th response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Bianchi may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s February 20th response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Christopher Bianchi 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
