(909) 337-3516 - all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission A legend explaining the information presented in the retention schedule; please read this for an explanation of every column. The specified retention period applies regardless of the media of the record: If a record is stored on paper and electronic format (a computer file on a hard drive), all electronic and paper records should be destroyed (or deleted / erased) after the specified period of time has elapsed and authorization to destroy has been obtained. Copies or duplicates of records should never be retained longer than the prescribed period for the official (original) record, and drafts and copies should be destroyed as soon as they are no longer required. The term “records” shall include documents, instructions, books, microforms, electronic files, magnetic tape, optical media, or papers as defined by the California Public Records Act. STRUCTURE: CITYWIDE, DEPARTMENTS & DIVISIONS The City-wide retention schedule includes those records all departments have in common (letters, memorandums, purchase orders, etc.). These records are NOT repeated in the Department retention schedule, unless that department is the Office of Record, and therefore responsible for maintaining the official (original) record for the prescribed length of time. Each department has a separate retention schedule that describes the records that are unique to their department, or for which they are the Office of Record. Where appropriate, the department retention schedules are organized by Division within that Department. If a record is not listed in your department retention schedule, refer to the City-wide retention schedule. An index will be provided for your reference. BENEFITS 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 of records storage •Eliminate duplication of effort within the City •Find records faster •Easier purging of file folders •Determine what media should be used to store records For questions, please contact the City Clerk. AUTHORIZATION TO DESTROY RECORDS: Destruction of an official (original) record that has exceeded its retention period must be authorized according to City Policies & Procedures prior to destroying it. •If there is a minimum retention (“Minimum 2 years"), destruction of the document must be authorized before it is destroyed, as it is an official (original) record. Copies, drafts, notes and non-records do NOT require authorization, and can be destroyed “When No Longer Required.” •If there is NOT a minimum retention ("When No Longer Required"), 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 on destroying records. “Litigation, complaints, claims, public records act requests, audits and/or investigations suspend normal retention periods (retention resumes after settlement or resolution).” Resolution No. 2024-10 Page 3 of 122 ____________________ Docusign Envelope ID: 36458923-0C1D-41BB-A197-D10D1E08990D RECORDS RETENTION SCHEDULE LEGEND ©1995 – 2024 Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc.

Background The City's Records Management Program applies efficient and economical methods to the creation, utilization, maintenance, retention, preservation and disposal of records managed by the City. The current Retention Schedule was approved and adopted by City Council on June 2, 2020 by Resolution No. 2020-15. Changes in laws, standards of business practices and the creation of new records in the City necessitated a biennial review of the current schedules. The City retained the services of Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc. to assist with the records retention schedule legal review, best practices of other agencies and changes in law and updates to the schedules. The updates to the schedules were reviewed interactively with representatives from each department to incorporate current practices and provide clear, specific and relevant records descriptions and appropriate retention periods. Government Code Section 34090 broadly governs the retention of records in the City however there may be specific regulations that provide for longer retention, and the City may prefer to keep certain records longer than set for in the regulations. The guiding regulations and provision for department preference are noted in the comment field of the schedules. There are minor additions and clean-up language sparsely throughout the schedules. There are new additions to various department schedules shown in the exhibit to the attachment. There are a few deletions of records due to those records existing in other sections or no longer existing. When appropriate, the Fire Department records will be updated or deleted as the City no longer has its own Fire Department. Vernon Fire Department records still do exist, therefore their records schedules remain unchanged during this update. The proposed resolution is presented along with the proposed city-wide schedules in the attachment to this staff report in tracked changes format which provides a clear visual of the changes to the schedules. Upon approval, the Resolution establishes the City's retention schedule; provides for the routine destruction of records, authorizes minor updates without further Council action; and repeals Resolution No. 2020-15. Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. Attachments 1. Resolution No. 2024-10 2. Exhibit A to Resolution No. 2024-10 (redline) HOW TO USE RETENTION SCHEDULES ©1995-2024 Gladwell Governmental Services,Inc.(909)337-3516-all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission A legend explaining the information presented in the retention schedule; please read this for an explanation of every column. The specified retention period applies regardless of the media of the record: If a record is stored on paper and electronic format (a computer file on a hard drive), all electronic and paper records should be destroyed (or deleted / erased) after the specified period of time has elapsed and authorization to destroy has been obtained. Copies or duplicates of records should never be retained longer than the prescribed period for the official (original) record, and drafts and copies should be destroyed as soon as they are no longer required. The term"records"shall include documents, instructions, books, microforms,electronic files, magnetic tape, optical media, or papers as defined by the California Public Records Act. STRUCTURE: CITYWIDE. DEPARTMENTS & DIVISIONS The City-wide retention schedule includes those records all departments have in common (letters, memorandums, purchase orders, etc.). These records are NOT repeated in the Department retention schedule, unless that department is the Office of Record, and therefore responsible for maintaining the official (original) record for the prescribed length of time. Each department has a separate retention schedule that describes the records that are unique to their department, or for which they are the Office of Record. Where appropriate, the department retention schedules are organized by Division within that Department. If a record is not listed in your department retention schedule, refer to the City-wide retention schedule. An index will be provided for your reference. BENEFITS 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 of records storage • Eliminate duplication of effort within the City • Find records faster • Easier purging of file folders • Determine what media should be used to store records For questions, please contact the City Clerk. AUTHORIZATION TO DESTROY RECORDS Destruction of an official (original) record that has exceeded its retention period must be authorized according to City Policies & Procedures prior to destroying it. • If there is a minimum retention ("Minimum 2 years"), destruction of the document must be authorized before it is destroyed, as it is an official (original) record. Copies, drafts, notes and non-records do NOT require authorization, and can be destroyed "When No Longer Required." • If there is NOT a minimum retention ("When No Longer Required"), 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 on destroying records. "Litigation, complaints, claims, public records act requests, audits and/or investigations suspend normal retention periods (retention resumes after settlement or resolution)."
