Approve the request for the destruction of obsolete records from the Police Department in
accordance with the retention schedule outlined in City Council Resolution 2013-014.
utscUSSION
On April 1, 2013, the City Council approved Resolution 2013-014 outlining the records retention
schedule for the agencies, departments, and offices of the City. City records are governed by the
Public Records Act which provides the period in which records need to be retained. The Citywide
Records Team compiled the Citywide Records Retention Schedule which sets forth the retention
period for a particular record. The Municipal Code requires that the destruction of a City record be
approved by the City Attorney.
In accordance with Section 513 of the Citywide Records Retention Schedule Resolution, the City
Attorney has approved the list of records proposed for destruction from the departments as
outlined in the attached documents.
The Citywide Records Retention Schedule has specific retention periods for many City documents.
The Schedule is modeled after the California Secretary of State's sample for local government and
incorporates other statutory periods applicable to Santa Ana. These are minimum retention
periods. Each department makes discretionary decisions on whether to retain records past the
minimum requirements.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
