Dear Mr. Rumley and elected officials:
Governor
Charlie Baker changed the Public Records Law. It is enhanced for the
first time in 40 years. This will help us change the city charter,
which has been dormant almost that long.
We
respectfully request more transparency from City Hall Medford, which
runs like some kind of draconian cult so that Ann Marie Cugno can play
"the fugitive" and not talk to the press; so that Robert Emmet Skerry - a
senior fraud investor...ooops...INVESTIGATOR on a cable TV commission
saying
that the commission he's on doesn't have to look at TV3 because "that's
a different kind of fraud."
HE CALLED WHAT TV3 was doing FRAUD but
didn't investigate it even though he was on the commission because Bob
Skerry called the company, with legal advice from his own cousin, "a
different kind of fraud," not to mention feather-her-nest Paulette Van
der Kloot turning a blind eye to Roy E. Belson's shenanigans.
Do
your job, Mr. Rumley, because those wolves in the hen house get away
with it only via permission. You are the city attorney, don't be
derelict in your duty when the comments on the petition to have a
transition plan in place for a new superintendent damn Roy Belson and
make his defensive posture and campaign to stay as ugly as Bob Covelle's
attempt to stay on at Medford Housing.
Have you got the picture?
NOW TO THE NEW LAW:Under the new law, state agencies will only be able to charge labor
fees for requests that take more than four hours, while cities and towns
with more than 20,000 residents will only be able to charge labor fees
for requests that take more than two hours.
The law also limits
the labor fee to $25 per hour, though cities and towns will be able to
seek permission from the Supervisor of Records to charge more. And
government agencies of all sizes will need permission to charge labor
fees to redact documents (unless the redactions are required by law).
HOW WILL PUBLIC RECORDS LAW MAKE GOVT MORE TRANSPARENT
4. Documents from the MBTA Retirement Board, which manages a
$1.6 billion pension fund for transit workers, will become public
records
Hey,
Jonathan R. Davis, Mr. Bernadette McGlynn - husband of the former
Mayor's sister, this means you!!! Does it include Jack McGlynn, the
lobbyist brother of Mayor McGlynn since he worked with the MBTA? Don't
know...

The
picture is this: one citizen has worked tirelessly to educate Medford
to the public records law, which City Councilor Michael Marks noted at a
council meeting when he started utilizing this important tool. That
citizen taught Paul Camuso about open meeting laws, that citizen should
be on the city pay roll because my efforts on behalf of this city are
far more efficient than both Adam Knight and Fred Dello Russo's
"efforts" put together.
The
law can be expanded...the good news is that this first step is
amazing. Now we have a better chance of changing the charter, with a
more efficient public records law in place.
I respectfully ask that Medford City Hall stop abusing the law and start complying with our requests.
Thus
far, I do not believe you have, Mr. Rumley. This "no document" and
"no contracts" game you are playing says loud and clear to the residents
YOU AREN'T DOING YOUR JOB. Make sure that there ARE documents; make
sure that each employee HAS A CONTRACT, because if you tell us that
Jeanine Femino Camuso has no contract and skirt the law again with
buffoonery, it will be a huge red flag to the citizens that what you
have called "delusional" (my writings) is not the case.
If
a Robert A. Maiocco is hired at City Hall, think of the public records
requests on him, and his notorious background at Wells Fargo and beyond.
The public has a right to know what a hack-infested Administration the charlatan mayor has created.
Sincerely and Respectfully
Joe Viglione
