[edit] Public has right to know who Brockton employees are calling
"When they are talking business on city lines, the cell phone records of city employees are public.
That ruling comes from state Supervisor of Public Records Alan N. Cote in response to an appeal filed by The Enterprise after City Solicitor James J. D’Ambrose said the public does not need to know to whom city employees are talking.
In a July 11 letter, Cote ordered D’Ambrose to release copies of the bills, omitting only telephone numbers related to personal calls.
“However, the telephone numbers of calls made or received by the city employees which pertain to their public business are a matter of public record,” Cote wrote."
