Mr. Stegmeier,
Since my receipt of your August 4, 2015 I have had no further written response from your office regarding my outstanding FOIL request.
I did however receive an unannounced visit at my home on Saturday, August 15, 2015 from an individual identifying herself as a "Dawn Gaczewski," along with an unidentified gentleman. Ms. Gaczewski inquired as to the nature of the FOIL request. She was told that the reason for the request stemmed from my wife's concern regarding the Food Pantry, and she would have to discuss the specifics of her concern with her. I did provide Ms. Gaczewski with our home telephone number, but to date, I understand, there has been no attempt by Ms. Gaczewski to contact my wife.
I am assuming, consistent with your letter, that your search is in progress, and is not yet complete. As such, this communication does not constitute an appeal within the meaning of the Public Officers Law.
Rather, it is an assertion that there was nothing within the scope of my conversation with Ms. Gaczewski which in any way compromised the integrity of my initial FOIL request.
Thank you for your attention.
