Mr. Nash,

This email is in response to your public records originally dated March 20, 2013 but not received by the City until October 22, 2013. You requested the following information (with the city’s response below the request):

“Records of overtime pay sorted by employee and salary sorted by employee (exclusive of overtime) for 2011 and 2012.”

City’s Response: Please be advised the salary information for 2012 (and 2013) is available on the city’s website at: http://www3.springfield-ma.gov/finance/checkbook-payroll.0.html. Regarding records for 2011, I have requested the information or a good faith cost estimate from the appropriate department. Once I receive the information, I will send a supplemental response.

Should you be aggrieved by this response, you may appeal to the Supervisor of Public Records in the Massachusetts Secretary of State’s Office pursuant to 950 CMR 32.00 and G. L. c. 66, § 10(b).
