What’s in it
AI summary People in the address confidentiality program can now ask county recorders to hide their names from public websites. This change requires recorders to set up a way to handle these requests and keep that information private. Currently, only assessors are required to do this.1
Read the official explanation
Under current law, an assessor or the assessor’s staff must redact the name of a participant in the address confidentiality program from documents displayed for public access on an internet site, upon the participant’s request. This bill extends this requirement to recorders and requires recorders to implement and maintain a process to facilitate such requests. The bill also strikes the reference to the assessor’s staff for purposes of the requirement.
