Contracts and rfps for Dukes County Sheriffs Jail & HOC (Division Of Capital Asset Management And Maintenance)

Dear Mr. Weimer:

We received your email below following up on a request for information which you’ve noted was sent on June 30th. We have done some internal research and have no record of a request having been received from you on June 30th regarding the subject project. We did however locate an email sent July 15th requesting a similar update on a June 30th request. Because we do not want to have requests go unanswered, would you be good enough to provide the email address to which your June 30th correspondence was delivered so that we can investigate further? Going forward, we’d ask that you use either our request form at https://www.mass.gov/forms/dcamm-public-records-request-form or publicrecords.dcamm@mass.gov<mailto:publicrecords.dcamm@mass.gov> to best ensure delivery to the public records group.

With respect to your underlying request, please note that the email received on July 30th will be logged as a formal request for this information. Included herein is your Ten Day response. We are currently researching your request. If any or all of the requested documents are exempt pursuant to the public records law, you will be notified by this office. We will contact you if your request will take longer than ten (10) days to be fulfilled, but will do our best to promptly provide these records to you.
PLEASE NOTE: while we endeavor to provide prompt service, due to the COVID-19 emergency and its attendant uncertainties, including office closures and employee absences, response times may exceed ten days. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we process your requests.
The Massachusetts General Laws for Public Records provides that certain fees may be assessed when public record requests are made to a custodian of documents. In order to make records more accessible to the public, we may waive search, retrieval and copying charges. In addition, we will strive to fulfill requests electronically, if we are able. Otherwise, once copied the responsive documents will be mailed to you or made available for pick-up at our offices.
Please feel free to contact us at 617-727-4053 with any questions or concerns you may have.
Very truly yours,

PUBLIC RECORDS

Response to: Public Records No. 21-223

Dear Mr. Weimer:

The Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (“DCAMM”) received your public records request dated July 30, 2021.

You requested:

“any and all contracts, requests for proposals (rfps), and solicitations relating to: “SDD ‐ Dukes County Sheriffs Jail & HOC ‐ Long Term Needs Fea”

The name of the project is cut off in the previous records I have seen. The project is part of the SDD2001P program.”
The subject project was initiated and then put on hold. As a consequence there are no contracts, RFPs or solicitations, therefore a diligent search of DCAMM records did not reveal any documents responsive to your request.

If you wish to challenge any aspect of DCAMM’s response, in accordance with G.L. c. 66, § 10 and 950 CMR 32.00, you may appeal to the following office: Supervisor of Public Records, Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth, Public Records Division, One Ashburton Place, 17th Floor, Boston, MA 02108, and in accordance with G.L. c. 66, § 10A(c), you have the right to seek judicial review of an unfavorable decision by commencing a civil action in the Superior Court.

Sincerely,

PUBLIC RECORDS UNIT
