G.5.b. Destruction of Closed Meeting Audio Recordings
The Legislature requires that closed session meetings of Boards of Education be audio recorded and those recordings retained for a period of 18 months. Beginning in July, 2005, Boards can destroy those recordings provided that they are at least 18 months old and that the minutes of the specific closed session meetings have been approved and are retained as part of the official records of the Board's business. It is suggested that the Board purge these audio recordings twice a year in conjunction with the semi-annual review of closed session minutes.
Recommended Motion(s):
That the Board of Education approve the destruction of audio recordings of closed session Board of Education meetings made prior to July 1, 2023, which meets the state criteria of being at least 18 months old, and for which approved minutes are retained as the official records of the Board's business.
