Request #17-125 (Belmont, MA - Animal Control (Health Department))

Request for public records made to Town of Belmont by Collin Binkley.

Agency

Town of Belmont

Summary

Hello, I’m a reporter for the AP in Boston working on a possible story about turkeys becoming aggressive in urban and suburban areas and wanted to request some relevant records. Can you provide: Any records showing the annual number of complaints made about turkeys since the beginning of 2012, including 311 calls or complaints made to police or animal control (Other communities have been able to provide a spreadsheet listing 311 or police calls of complaints related to turkeys. That’s ideal, if it exists) Any reports detailing complaints about turkeys becoming aggressive in the same period If there’s anyone at the town with expertise in dealing with wild turkeys, it would be great to talk with them, too. I don’t currently have a deadline but am hoping to finish reporting as soon as possible.  Feel free to call me  with any questions.  Best, Collin Binkley Reporter The Associated Press 184 High Street Boston, MA 02110 T  617.357.8100 M 617.680.8182 cbinkley@ap.org www.ap.org www.twitter.com/cbinkley
