Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
I would appreciate your Board's approval of a record retention and destruction schedule to allow for the orderly retention, preservation, or disposal of documents. To support that process, I ask for your approval of my request that my office may destroy documents which are not required by law to continue to be maintained and which are no longer needed.
