Hello,

It has been two weeks and I have not received these documents. Would you mind resending to the following address?

Dear Mr. Waltman,

Please be advised we have mailed two copies on two different occasions to the address provided on your request. The mail has not been returned to sender.

Thank you,

I am not sure what to say exactly, we never received these records. My office can vouch for that, and I have searched our records as well to see if we missed it. Is there anyway to send this electronically? Other than that I don't see another option except for sending a third time. I feel terribly, but we have not received it. Just to give the proper address one more time, it is 411A Highland Avenue, Somerville, MA, 02144. Thank you for your time and diligence, it is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Curtis Waltman

Dear Curtis Waltman,

Please advise if you want to send us a self-addressed stamped envelope and we'll use your own envelope to mail it again or a different address to have it mailed to?

Hello,

If the HPD records office is amenable, a workaround I've thought of is to email you from my personal email, curtis@muckrock.com with my home address and have it sent there? I think that may work better. Let me know what you think, and thank you!

Sincerely,

Yes please, OR#17-03290.
