Follow-up discussion of Board Member inquiry at January 4, 2018 meeting regarding voicemails on personal accounts/devices as related to Board Policy No. BP 033 — Conducting District Business Using Personal Accounts and Devices Mr. Alm said that upon further consult with the Information Technology (IT) staff about the reality of trying to capture voicemails from private mobile devices on District servers, it appears currently that there is no practical way for that to be accomplished with the existing District IT systems. Even if captured, IT Manager John Huie noted that the District's phone system does not have the capability to search voicemail recordings other than manually listening to them. Similarly, there currently is no widely available and proven technology to easily forward texts to a District server for permanent recordkeeping. As technologies advance, forwarding of voicemails and texts from mobile devices may become more practical. At the end of the discussion, Mr. Alm said the primary thrust of BP 033 is that when Board Members and staff must use a mobile device to conduct District business, it should be conducted through use of a District email account, which will create a recoverable public record of the matter. BOARD ACTION: Held the discussion. 7. Secretary of the District — No report.
