[edit] Council approves ordinance to increase 'transparency'
"The Seattle City Council voted unanimously today to pass legislation that will require every city department to adopt 'culture of compliance' best practices for managing and responding to public records requests.
The legislation was developed by the council’s 'special committee on open government' and calls for the city to implement state auditor and attorney general recommendations for managing its public records process, and requires all departments to adopt model rules for complying with the Public Records Act that have been in place in the council’s legislative department for the last two years."
