Dear Mr. Thrasher: Reference is made to the captioned Request which was submitted to the Town of Gulf Stream on October 2, 2014. A copy of the Request is attached for convenience. It is the Requestor's belief that the Town of Gulf Stream is purposely delaying the fulfilling of the Request. It is implausible that the fulfilling of this Request is taking this long.

Of course, if you cannot accommodate the Deadline and you alert us at least 24 hours before the Deadline, articulating a bona fide reason for not being able to accommodate the Deadline, the Requestor will consider extending the Deadline to a reasonable date considering the circumstances, which circumstances would have to be reasonable in themselves.
