Genola council adopts resolution naming mayor and city clerk as privacy officers
Summary
The council unanimously approved Resolution 2025-15 to designate the mayor and city clerk as the municipality's privacy officers to comply with a new state privacy law; the mayor said the town had adopted a privacy policy in April and is formalizing implementation steps.
The Genola City Council approved Resolution 2025-15, appointing the mayor and the city clerk as the municipality’s privacy officers to comply with a state privacy law requiring local governments to adopt privacy policies and procedures.
Eric Hazel moved to approve the resolution and Grant Lundberg seconded; the motion passed by voice vote. The mayor told the council the town had passed a privacy policy in April and is now formalizing officers and follow-up procedures "a year ahead of most municipalities," though the council still needs to formalize program implementation and reporting.
Councilmembers asked for clarification on the role of a privacy officer. The mayor said privacy officers would oversee the privacy program, which the clerks will implement and which the council will approve and monitor for compliance.
