RESOLUTION NO. 85-121 When the record indicates the subject has reached age 70 and has had no arrests since age 60, the record will be purged. If the individual has been arrested after age 60, the record will be main- tained for the applicable retention period if it extends past the age of 70; or, in the case of a felony conviction, for a ten (10) year period com- mencing with the date of release from supervision. 3o Arrests not resulting in a conviction or for which no disposition was received for an offense where a prior constitutes a felony depending upon dispo- sition, such retention is to begin on the date of arrest. Arrest for felonies resulting in a conviction for a misdemeanor offense, such retention period is to begin on the date of arrest. E. Exceptions To Basic Criminal Retention Periods: Records of subjects convicted of offenses requiring registration under Section 290 of the Penal Code will be retained for the life of the individual. e Records of subjects sentenced to prison on felony convictions, then paroled for life, will be main- tained until the subject has reached the age of 80. At age 80, the Records Section will inquire of the California Department of Corrections as to the subject's status. Retention reverts to the "Modified Lifetime Retention Period", at age 70 if dis- charged from parole. o Records of juveniles committed by juvenile court to a California Youth Authority ("CYA") facility will be retained until age 25 or five (5) years from date of release, whichever is longer. Commitments by an adult court to CYA will be retained for seven (7) years from the date of arrest. Subject to the required two (2) year retention provided by Government Code Section 34090, the City's policy for establishing criminal history record on juveniles is: No reports of arrests for Welfare and Institu- tion Code ("WIC") Sections 600 & 601 will be retained.
