HB 2073 - DIGEST

(DIGEST AS ENACTED)

Provides that, except as otherwise provided by law, county, municipal, and other local government agencies may, as an alternative to destroying noncurrent public records having no further administrative or legal value, donate the public records to the state library, local library, historical society, genealogical society, or similar society or organization; or auction the records through public auction.

Declares that public records may not be donated under this provision unless: (1) The records are seventy years old or more;

(2) The local records committee has approved the destruction of the public records; and

(3) The state archivist has determined that the public records have no historic interest.
