01:45 PM -- SB16-037
Senator Kefalas presented Senate Bill 16-037 to the committee, along with strike-below amendment L.001 (Attachment A) and amendment L.002 (Attachment B). The bill amends the Colorado Open Records Act (CORA), focusing on digitally stored data and electronic mail messages. This bill modifies the requirements for the CORA records custodian, creating a requirement that the custodian produce records in a machine-readable standard format routinely used by that custodian. "Machine readable" is defined by the bill to mean data that can be read, written, parsed, and displayed by a computer program without the need for manual human intervention.
