The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records April 29, 2026 SPR26/1395 Captain Corey S. Rutledge Saugus Fire Department 298 Central Street Saugus, MA 01906 Dear Captain Rutledge: I have received the petition of Gianna Valentino appealing the response of the Saugus Fire Department (Department) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On December 30, 2025, Ms. Valentino requested, “... firearm logs for Dec. 16, 2025.” Previous Appeals and In Camera Review This request was the subject of previous appeals and an in camera review. See SPR26/0241 Determination of the Supervisor of Records (February 6, 2026), SPR26/0588 Determinations of the Supervisor of Records (March 6, 2026 and April 1, 2026), SPR26/1187 Determination of the Supervisor of Records (April 14, 2026), and SPR26/1400 Determination of the Supervisor of Records (April 23, 2026). In my April 23rd determination, I found that the Department met its burden to redact portions of the record under Exemption (c), and that the Department met its burden in responding to this request under the Public Records Law. On April 23, 2026, upon Ms. Valentino’s request, SPR26/1400 was opened for reconsideration. Issue Addressed in Separate Appeal In her April 14, 2026 appeal petition, Ms. Valentino states, “I am appealing SPR26/0588 In-Camera Review Determination. . . .” It is my understanding that this request and the issues raised in Ms. Valentino’s appeal were addressed in SPR26/1400, and are currently under review in a pending reconsideration of SPR26/1400. Conclusion Accordingly, I will consider this administrative appeal closed.
