New Bedford towing bids

Todd Feathers filed this request with the Brockton City Clerk of Brockton, MA.
Est. Completion None
Status
No Responsive Documents

Communications

From: Todd Feathers

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

1) Copies of all bids submitted in response to the city's most recent request for proposals for towing contracts. This should include bids in response to the most recent RFPs for all towing zones, not just the most recent RFP if the towing zone contracts were put out to bid at different times.

2) Copies of the city's active contracts with towing providers in all towing zones.

I ask that all fees be waived as I am a journalist and I intend to use the requested records to disseminate information in the public's interest.

I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Todd Feathers

From: Brockton City Clerk

Your request has been forwarded to the Law, Police and Traffic Departments.

From: Brockton City Clerk

Good morning:

The law department received your public records request yesterday. Our
apologies for the delay in response. We are unaware of why it was not
responded to. That being said, the City of Brockton has no responsive
documents to your request as we have no RFPs for towing companies.

Regards,

Allison Cogliano
Assistant City Solicitor
The City of Brockton
