San Diego Mayor Strikes Email Elimination Proposal
- San Diego Union Tribune, Thursday, March 20, 2014 5 PM
Kevin Faulconer, the mayor of San Diego Mayor, officially ended a proposal that would have erased city emails after 12 months. The policy was proposed by City Council President Todd Gloria, citing the cost of keeping these records. According to the law, the city is only required to archive such communications for a year. City Council members are pushing a city charter amendment which would require the city to keep emails and other public records for at least two years.
