The City Clerk is custodian of the City’s records and is responsible for administering the City’s records management system utilizing approved procedures for destruction and/or microfilming of inactive records. The City Clerk is responsible for the care and custody of all official records and documents of the City, and researches and disseminates information for staff and the public. These records include all City deeds, contract, leases, ordinances, resolutions, minutes and the Municipal Code.
Public Records: California law designates the vast majority of the City’s records as available for public disclosure.
