WHEREAS, on May 2, 2023, the City Council passed Resolution No. 89700 C.M.S. authorizing the City Clerk to retain a consultant to prepare a new records retention policy that updates and replaces the existing policy, which was last updated in 2003; and

WHEREAS, the Records and Information Management Policy (Exhibit A to Council Resolution 90117 C.M.S.) provides direction to staff on the rules for managing records of the City of Oakland; and

WHEREAS, the Records Retention Schedule (Exhibit B to Council Resolution 90117 C.M.S.) identifies categories of records created or received by City departments and establishes retention periods for those records consistent with federal, state and local law and policy, and was prepared with input from and in consultation with City departments; and
