MARIA ALICIA DUARTE, CIVIC
City Clerk

A legend explaining the information presented in the retention schedule has been printed on the back of each page for your easy reference; an index to locate records is also provided.

The specified retention period applies regardless of the media of the record: If a record is stored on paper and a computer file on a hard drive, both records should be destroyed (or erased) after the specified period oftime has elapsed.

Copies or duplicates of records should never be retained longer than the prescribed period for the original record.

The City-wide retention schedule includes those records all departments have in common (|ettere, memorandums, purchase orders, etc.). These records are NOT repeated in the Department retention echedu|e, unless that department is the Office of Reoord, and therefore responsible for maintaining the original record for the prescribed length of time.

Each department has e separate retention schedule that describes the records that are unique to their deportment, orfor which they one the Office of Record. Where oppropriata, the department retention schedules are organized by Division within that Department. If n000nd is not listed in your department retention schedule, refer to the City-wide retention schedule. An index will be provided for your reference.

BERLM
This retention schedule has been developed by Diane R. Gladwell, MMC, an expert in Municipal Government records, and will provide the City with the following benefits:
~Reduce administrative expenses, expedite procedures
~Free filing cabinet and office space
^Reduce the cost cfrecords storage
~ Eliminate duplication ofeffort within the City
^ Find records faster
^Easier purging offile folders
~Determine what media should beused tostore records
For questions, please contact the City Clerk.

Destruction of an original record that has exceeded its retention period must be authorized according tn City Policies & Procedures 2[Lorto destroying it.
° |fthere iaeminimum retention (^80inimmumn2 years"),

� If there is NOT e minimum retention ("When No Longer Requined''), it does NOT need to be authorized prior to destruction, as it is a preliminary draft / transitory record or a copy.

On every page of the schedules (near the top, just under the column headings) are important instructions, including instructions regarding holds ondestroying records.
