Committee reviews which county records to keep or discard

Records disposition lists and schedules submitted by agencies shall be reviewed by the managing director for the identification and selection of those records series which have sufficient historical value to warrant their preservation for archival purpose, or as required by law, ordinance or resolution to be retained permanently or for a specified period of time. After this identification and selection, the lists and schedules shall be submitted for approval to a committee, designated as the records disposition committee, composed of the managing director, director of finance, the corporation counsel, the county clerk, and the chairperson of the finance committee of the county council. Any county officer of the committee may designate a representative to act in the officer's place and stead in all matters covered by this section. The committee shall return the approved records disposition lists and schedules to the appropriate department or agency through the managing director for implementation. (Ord. 1332 § 1 (part), 1983)
