Subsequently, the Town sent a supplemental response to Ms. Wise and this office on October 29, 2025. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s September 19, 2025 response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Wise may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s October 29th response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1).
