Communications
From: Robert Galbraith
To Whom It May Concern:
Under the provisions of the New York Freedom of Information Law, Article 6 of the Public Officers Law, I hereby request a copy of all records or portions thereof related to, or referring to the following:
1. Any and all contracts, memoranda of understanding, or other agreements with Zeppelin Communications and/or Michael Caputo.
2. Any policies or guidelines concerning access to or the use of Erie County Water Authority social media accounts, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, or accounts on other platforms.
3. Any communications between staff of the Erie County Water Authority and Zeppelin Communications, Michael Caputo, or any other Zeppelin Communications employee regarding access to or use of Erie County Water Authority social media accounts.
I understand that there is a fee of $0.25 per page for duplication of the records requested; however, this request is a matter of public concern and is not being made for commercial usage. As such, I request that any fees associated with providing requested records be waived. I also request that documents be provided in electronic format if at all possible. Doing so would eliminate the need to copy the materials and provides another basis for my requested fee waiver.
If, however, such a waiver is denied, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request.
As you know, the Freedom of Information Law requires that an agency respond to a request within five (5) business days of receipt of such request. Therefore, I would appreciate a response as soon as possible.
If you determine that some but not all of the information is exempt from disclosure and that you intend to withhold it, I ask that you redact it for the time being and make the rest available as requested. In any event, please provide a notification citing the legal authorities on which you rely if you determine that any or all of the information is exempt and will not be disclosed.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter; I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
Sincerely,
Robert Galbraith
