Good afternoon,
Please see the attached letter and responsive documents. The size of the files I am attempting to send have been too big to be received by you when sent all at once (I have received a bounce back email twice, once with all attachments normal size and once with all attachments zipped). The drop box link you provided in your email of 9/16/19, in which you inquired on the status of your request, has expired, as I discovered upon clicking on it moments ago. I am therefore sending the files in two separate emails. This is email one of two. Please confirm written receipt of each. Thank you.

Although I had intended to send my response to you in only two parts, the second part bounced back as well. That being said, please now confirm receipt of this second email and look for a third email to follow. Thank you.

Good afternoon,
I have sent the response to your Right to Know Request as referenced above in three (3) parts as the files were too large for me to send in one email and have bounced back as well when sent in two (2) parts. Please confirm to me if you have not received all three (3) emails comprising my response to your request.
Of note, the drop box link of your email of 9/16/19 was expired, so I was unable to upload files to you in that manner.
Thank you.
