Please send me the requested materials by email or let me know when they are available to be picked-up, preferably reasonably in advance of the July 18 public hearing on the Purported RDA. Please provide the documents on a rolling basis if needed to avoid further prejudicing the Genovas, who are the subject of the Purported RDA, given that they only received notice of the Purported RDA and the July 18 hearing two days ago, Saturday, July 8.
As to categories 8 and 9, the records alternatively may be uploaded to the Town's Minutes/Agendas website and you may let me know when they have been loaded, as I may review them there.
Attached is the information we have on file related to your request. We did not come across the items in bullet number 1 on the Town e-mail server. We do not have any disclosures on file related to this request. The meeting recordings can be found at the following webpages:

Please be advised, however, that the Massachusetts Public Records Law authorizes withholding of “personnel and medical files or information; also any other materials or data relating to a specifically named individual, the disclosure of which may constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.” G.L. c. 4, § 7(26)(c). The Town has redacted personal e-mail addresses and personal phone numbers because its disclosure would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy not outweighed by the public’s interest in disclosure of the material. These redactions have been made to the record only where necessary and no whole pages have been redacted.
