One other thought on this issue. The new revision to the Public Records Act (17VAC15-120-30) sets specific requirements for the type of shredder to use and "contractors doing the shredding must be bonded." Inmates under the authority of the Sheriff's Dept. may or may not be considered a "contractor" for the rest of the City. Ginny Jones (Virginia A.
