How Legislation and Current Events have Changed the Public Records Landscape

Description: Managing requests for public records is hard. Staying organized, coordinating moving parts, and remaining compliant with evolving compliance mandates is no small task.  This presentation will discuss several rulings and pieces of legislation that have had a notable impact on those managing requests for public records: (1) How a single word like "Extraction" can create a haze of confusion; (2) how the explosion of video has outpaced some departmental policies; and (3) how work-from-home mandates have created headaches for tech-challenged departments.  This presentation will also share the latest numbers and survey results from the Peers in Public Records Index, a quantifiable picture of the 124% growth in request processing complexity over the past 3 years.  Additional topics may be included.

Speakers:

Speakers: Jen Snyder  & Moses Johnson 

Since 2007, Ms. Jen Snyder has helped GovQA become one of the fastest-growing private GovTech software companies in Illinois. During her time at GovQA, Jen called on over 2,000 contacts in state and local governments. This allowed her to discuss government technology with state and local government influencers. Because of this experience and her continued curiosity and research into government technology, Jen was positioned perfectly to become our Chief Evangelist.

As Chief Evangelist at GovQA, Jen focuses full time on guest speaking, moderating, and small group discussions at government-focused roundtables, blogs, podcasts, and webinars. She is interested in thought-provoking discussions and best-practice working sessions with folks at all levels of state, city and county government across the U.S., especially around the topics of trends in public records workflows, legal affairs, and communications. Jen always keeps an eye out for new technology solutions that can solve the challenges faced by state and local governments.

Moses W. Johnson, IV is the Assistant City Attorney for Anaheim, California.  Mr. Johnson handles all phases of civil litigation matters involving the City including pre-trial discovery, law and motion, trial and appeal. He primarily practices in state and federal trial and appellate courts, litigating cases involving civil rights, land use, torts and construction law.  Mr. Johnson is a graduate of University of San Diego School of Law (Juris Doctor), and California State University, Long Beach (Bachelor of Science in Accounting).
