§ 3005. Archival review board. There shall be in the department an
archival review board which shall consist of five members; two of whom
shall be appointed by the speaker, two of whom shall be appointed by the
mayor, and one of whom shall be the commissioner, who shall serve ex
officio as chairperson of the board. At least one such appointment shall
be a professional archivist and at least one other such appointment
shall be a professional historian. The members of the commission, other
than the chair, shall be appointed within 30 days of the effective date
of this section and shall be entitled to reasonable expenses. All
appointed members of the commission shall be residents of the city.
Members shall serve for terms of four years from such date of
appointment. Vacancies in appointed membership of the board shall be
filled by appointment by whosoever was responsible for such original
appointment. The board shall meet once every 90 days or upon the request
of any of its members. Any member of such board shall have complete
access, during work hours, to inspect and review any appraisal,
organization, processing or archiving of city records in the custody of
an entity with which an agreement has been entered into for the purposes
specified in subdivision five of section 3003. Such board may request
and receive, from the department, assistance and data as may be
necessary for the proper execution of its powers and duties. Such board
shall render annually to the mayor a report reviewing the archival
processing of any city papers during the year for which the report has
been written.
