Scott County committee approves bulk records destruction; files to be held 60 days for public review
Summary
A Scott County records meeting approved a consent agenda authorizing destruction of a long list of records. The files will remain available for 60 days after the meeting for anyone to review or object, and destruction was authorized "pursuant to Indiana code."
Scott County’s records committee approved a consent agenda to destroy a list of records, with members voting unanimously to authorize the removals.
During the meeting, the committee reviewed an attached list of records proposed for destruction and voted to approve the bulk request. Miss Hardy moved to accept the destruction requests; Miss Hamilton seconded. Committee members were asked whether they wished to pull any items from the list for separate consideration; no substantive objections were raised.
Committee members and staff clarified that the identified records will be retained for 60 days after the meeting to allow inspection or formal objection. Those who wish to review the records or lodge an objection were instructed to contact the clerk’s office and speak with Miss Shelton to begin the review or appeal process.
The presiding member stated the destruction is authorized "pursuant to Indiana code." The transcript does not list vote tallies by name but indicates the motion passed unanimously.
The meeting proceeded to other administrative business after the vote. No further debate over the substance of the listed records is recorded in the transcript.
