Justin P. Morin SPR26/0099 Page 2 January 16, 2026 departments regarding the condition or repair of pedestrian ways at the golf course, specifically at or around Hole 14 of the Golf Course. ... Please search all municipal email accounts for emails to, from, or copying any City of Springfield departments … as well as any personnel assigned to Franconia Golf Course, that contain any of the following terms…. On December 10, 2025, Attorney Hanna modified the scope of her request, to “remove punctuation from the search terms and … reduce the search of emails to just the subject ‘Hole 14’ for now.” In an email to the City on January 9, 2026, Attorney Hanna stated, “[a] 30-day extension is fine.” In light of the above, I find it is unnecessary to opine on the City’s petition for an extension of time. Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Allison M. Hanna, Esq.
