Definition of public official in a city or county modified.
HF 1917 modifies Minnesota's definition of "public official" for disclosure purposes under data practices law. It specifically adds certain city/county managers, school district administrators (like business managers and HR directors), and political subdivision chief officers to the category of employees whose complaint records become public. The bill states that complaint data for these newly defined officials is only public if disciplinary action occurs, the employee resigns/terminates during an investigation, or legal claims are settled. This change directly affects city, county, and school district employees in the newly specified roles by tightening when their complaint records must be disclosed.
