Re: CG Acquisition Company, Inc. Records Request #548 and Records
Request #548-A
Dear Renee:
I attach Records Request #548-A, which is a newer version of Records
Request #548, since you advised that Records Request #548 was
"Administratively Closed". For convenience, I enclose Records Request
#548 and the worksheet which was prepared by Kelly Avery dated June
24, 2014.
As you can see, Ms. Avery has precisely identified the Responsive
Documents which would be applicable to the attached Records Request
#548 (which is identical to the enclosed #548-A which is dated today).
You have advised me that the $114.76 charge would be lessened based
upon your hourly rate being less than the $39.23 per hour as previously
asserted. Also, I remind you that there should be no charge for the first
fifteen minutes.
I am prepared to come to the Town Hall with a check to pick up the
documents. If you would be so kind as to provide Brenda Russell with
the precise amount that the Town is asking for, I will bring that check
along with me.

Since I will be leaving town at week's end, please let me know if I could
pick up the documents which are responsive to both Records Request
548-A and (its "Administratively Closed" Records Request #548) on
Friday morning.
I thank you in advance for your kindness in promptly handling this
updated Request.
I now leave you with my best personal regards.
Sincerely yours,
