[Tx-RML] Local Schedules Posted to Texas Register

[SLRM Info]

We are pleased to announce that the remaining 10 local government
retention schedules are now published in the Texas Register
<http://www.sos.state.tx.us/texreg/> . The issue includes revisions to:
Local Schedule CC: Records of County Clerks
Local Schedule DC: Records of District Clerks
Local Schedule EL: Records of Elections and Voter Registration
Local Schedule GR: Records Common to All Local Governments
Local Schedule HR: Records of Public Health Agencies
Local Schedule LC: Records of Justice and Municipal Courts
Local Schedule PS: Records of Public Safety Agencies
Local Schedule PW: Records of Public Works and Services
Local Schedule TX: Records of Property Taxation
Local Schedule UT: Records of Utility Services
These schedules will be open for public comment for a 30-day time
period. Written comments on the proposed rules may be submitted to
Nanette Pfiester, Program Planning and Research Specialist, P.O. Box
12927, Austin, TX 78711; by fax to (512) 421-7224; or by email to
nanette.pfiester at tsl.state.tx.us. To read about what happens after the
30-day comment period, visit our July blog post on this subject

The Texas State Library and Archives Commission's next meeting is
scheduled for February. At that time, we hope to gain final approval for
as many of these 10 schedules as possible, making their effective date
shortly afterward. Our Commission meets quarterly, so if changes are
made to a schedule due to public comment, it would not be until May
before they could return to our Commission for final approval, thus
making their effective date sometime during the summer of 2011.
As a local government employee, changes to these retention schedules
directly affect your business practices and recordkeeping. Since you are
more familiar with the day to day tasks of your job processes and
purpose of each record in your office, we rely on your input to help us
make these schedules meet your needs more completely.
