KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
RESOLUTION NO. FY2023-03F
A RESOLUTION OF THE ASSEMBLY OF THE KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH AMENDING
VARIOUS SECTIONS OF THE KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH RECORDS RETENTION
SCHEDULE AND CENTRAL FILING SYSTEM TO REFLECT AMENDMENTS TO THE
ASSESSING, BOROUGH FIRE DEPARTMENTS, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT,
ENGINEERING AND FACILITIES, FINANCE, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, AND
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SERIES
WHEREAS, the Kodiak Island Borough Code 2.40.120 establishes a program for records
management, including the creation, administration, and approval of the records retention
schedule through resolution; and
WHEREAS, in August 2025, the Assembly passed Resolution No. FY2023-03E, which
replaced the term "legal opinions" with "Borough Attorney Subject Files" and "Litigation Case
Files." This change allows department directors to assess the significance of these documents,
perform annual evaluations for archival value, and guarantee their proper preservation in
Laserfiche to avert loss from staff changes or electronic file deletions; and
WHEREAS, the amendment in 2025 encompassed the Manager's Office, Personnel
Management, and Clerk's Office Series. This resolution aims to align the remaining Borough
departments with the prior amendment; and
WHEREAS, the Assembly concludes that it is in the best interest of the Kodiak Island Borough
to modify the Record Retention Schedule to incorporate the proposed changes.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE ASSEMBLY OF THE KODIAK ISLAND
BOROUGH that the Borough Assembly hereby adopts and integrates Exhibit "A," which details
revisions to the records series for Assessing, Borough Fire Departments, Community
Development, Engineering and Facilities, Finance, Information Technology, and Resource
Management. The other Borough Records Retention Schedules series will remain unchanged.
