To Whom It May Concern:
I wanted to follow up on the following New York Freedom of Information Law request, copied below, and originally submitted on Sept. 30, 2022. Please let me know when I can expect to receive a response.
Thanks for your help, and let me know if further clarification is needed.
From: Bethlehem Central School District, Delmar
Dear Mr. Parker,
We are in receipt of your FOIL in which you requested the following
records: *"**Any and all emails, paper communications, phone logs, text
messages, receipts, invoices, memorandum, meeting notes from/to/cc anyone
with the following certifications/licenses/titles:*
*- School Building Leader- School Administrator / Supervisor- School
District Leader- School District Business Leader- School Board Member*
*which contain the statement "next normal".*
The phrase "next normal" appeared over 5,000 times in a search of district
emails. This is a phrase that is used abundantly in many contexts, and does
not reasonably describe a record. As per the FOIL regulations, district
emails that constitute inter-agency or intra-agency communications are not
subject to FOIL, absent those communications containing statistical or
factual tabulations, or data; instructions that affect the public; final
agency policy or determinations; or external audits. Although we have not
reviewed the content of all of these emails, finding that your request does
not reasonably describe the records, we believe that the preponderance of
the emails are not subject to release based on the
inter-agency/intra-agency exceptions.
As per my prior email responses to you for your FOIL requests, we wish to
share the documents you seek, but find that we have been struggling to
sufficiently narrow down the requests to a specific record or document. I
offered a phone call with you, as possibly a more productive means of
assisting you. I remain open to such a call, but have no way to initiate
that without your consent. Please advise should you wish to pick a time to
discuss.
Thank you,
Judi Kehoe
