Ms. Madden,
Thank you for your response. Out of respect for the time and resources of everyone involved, I'd like to consider limiting my request. Are there executive summaries or abstracts as a part of the responsive documents? If so, I would be happy to start there and request more if necessary.
Thank you for your time,
Nathan Lawrence
From: Madden, Sarah
Mr. Lawrence -
I do not have any materials that are quite that high level. However, there may be individual documents - tabs within the briefing materials prepared for the transition team - that may be of interest to you.
These individual documents, provided by the Departments and the Office of Administration, focus on: budget; organization and governance; non-budget critical and non-critical issues; the disaster declaration; and one document solely focuses on operations within the Governor's Office. The number of pages for these documents ranges from 10 (disaster declarations) to 540 (budget background).
If you need further guidance, please let me know. If there are any topics you are specifically interested in, I would be happy to let you know the specific documents that are available and what the cost of producing them would be.
Finally, my understanding is that you are putting a hold on your individual requests to the Departments of Health and Senior Services, Public Safety, Social Services, Elementary and Secondary Education, and Economic Development. If that is not correct, please let me know.
I hope this information is of assistance.
Thank you -
Sarah Madden
