From: Chris Gelardi
Dear Records Access Officer:
This is an appeal of OOM's determination regarding FOIL request FOIL-2022-002-00393 on March 1, 2023, as well as its determinations on June 8, 2022; July 20, 2022; September 19, 2022; October 31, 2022; and December 28, 2022. All of the determinations extended the time to respond to my request.
OOM has constructively denied my request. The repeated delays, which have now extended nearly 10 months after I submitted the request on May 1, 2022, are unreasonable given the narrow scope of the request.
Because of this appeal, OOM is required by law to provide specific reasons within 10 business days explaining why this request cannot be fulfilled in a timely manner, or else, must provide the records sought.
According to the Committee on Open Government, if a government entity acknowledges that a request has been received, but has failed to grant access by the specific date given beyond 20 business days, or if the specific date given is unreasonable, a request may be considered to have been constructively denied (see §89[4][a]). In such a circumstance, the denial may be appealed in accordance with §89(4)(a), which states in relevant part that:
“...any person denied access to a record may within thirty days appeal in writing such denial to the head, chief executive or governing body of the entity, or the person therefore designated by such head, chief executive, or governing body, who shall within ten business days of the receipt of such appeal fully explain in writing to the person requesting the record the reasons for further denial, or provide access to the record sought.”
I am requesting that you either fulfill this FOIL request, or else provide a full explanation as to the reason for the denial, as required by law, of this public record.
Sincerely,
Chris Gelardi
