Records Retention Schedule

The City’s Records Retention Schedule is a list of all records produced or maintained by an agency and the length of time for which those records are kept. Provisions within federal and state law mandate the minimum length of time certain types of records must be kept, including permanent retention for some documents. It is within the agency’s legal authority to receive, create, retain and dispose of official public records.
