Hi Mr. O’Doherty,
For additional clarification, do you also want documents that are communications from constituents about the topic, or just communications sent from the mayor’s office? A preliminary search has been performed and the majority of documents are from people contacting the mayor’s office with their comments on the topic.
Thank you.
