A great deal has been said and written about the management of technology under a privatized system. But little about the information itself. The County holds a tremendous amount of personal information about its citizens. Property tax records, voting files, library records, the extensive data files of our social services including health and welfare data, birth, death, and marriage certificates, court documents, and so on. But let's set the issue of access aside for a moment and focus on confidential records.
Accountability is the keyword here.
I urge you to consider these points in your deliberations. That concludes my comments. Thank you for your attention.
