On August 21, 2007, the San Jose City Council approved recommendations from the Sunshine Reform Task Force regarding public access to the appointment calendars of certain City officials (for the complete language of the approved recommendation, click here - for information on how the required were later modified slightly, click here). The Mayor, Councilmembers, certain Council appointees and Council staff members, and most City department heads would be required to maintain calendars, updated weekly, of all meetings attended in the previous 13 weeks. Required information on these calendars was to include names and titles of meeting attendees, and the topic of the meeting.
In addition, the Mayor and Councilmembers, their respective chiefs of staff, the City Manager, City Attorney, City Clerk, and Executive Director of the San Jose Redevelopment Agency are required to provide on-line access to these calendars via the City's website. The Independent Police Auditor is not required to post her calendar but does so voluntarily.
