TOPIC: Destruction of Obsolete City Records
AGENDA TITLE:
Approve Destruction of Obsolete City Records
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the request for the destruction of obsolete records from Public Works Agency in
accordance with the retention schedule outlined in City Council Resolution 2013-014.
DISCUSSION
On April 1, 2013, the City Council approved Resolution 2013-014 ("Resolution"). This
Resolution provides to the multiple agencies, departments, and offices of the City,
guidance on the retention of City records and how long the records need to be retained.
To assist the City, the Citywide Records Team compiled the Citywide Records Retention
Schedule ("Schedule") which sets forth the retention period for a particular record. The
Schedule reflects the requirements of the Public Records Act, is modeled after the
California Secretary of State's sample for local government, and incorporates other
statutory periods applicable to Santa Ana.
The Resolution attaches the Schedule, which is broken down into multiple sections
covering the varied responsibilities and retention periods for a City department. These
are minimum retention periods. Each department makes discretionary decisions on
whether to retain records past the minimum retention period requirements.
Section 5.B of this Resolution and the City's Municipal Code require that the City Attorney
approve the destruction of a City record. Accordingly, the executive director of the Public
Works Agency lists obsolete records proposed for destruction. A copy of the
memorandum was reviewed by staff from the City Attorney's Office and approved by the
City Attorney. The memorandum is attached as an exhibit to this staff report. Destruction
of these records will serve to benefit each office with a more efficient access to files and
alleviate the City's current storage needs to maintain these obsolete records.
