The California Public Records Act requires state and local agencies to make their records available for public inspection and to make copies available upon request and payment of a fee unless those records are exempt from disclosure. Existing law establishes the segments of the public postsecondary education system in the state, including the University of California administered by the Regents of the University of California, the California State University administered by the Trustees of the California State University, and the California Community Colleges administered by the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. This bill would require records maintained by an auxiliary organization of the governing board of a community college district, the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, and California State University, as defined, or a University of California (UC) campus foundation, as defined, to be available to the public to inspect or copy at all times during the office hours of the organization or foundation, as specified. The bill would require an auxiliary organization and a UC campus foundation to follow specified requirements when fulfilling or denying a request for a record. The bill would prohibit specified records maintained by an auxiliary organization or UC campus foundation from being subject to disclosure. The bill would prohibit an auxiliary organization from disclosing trade secrets, as defined, and would require this information to be redacted from the organization's records before disclosure. The bill would provide specified judicial relief to persons seeking disclosure of records from an auxiliary organization or a UC campus foundation pursuant to this bill. The bill would require a disclosure of a record, which is exempt from disclosure, by an auxiliary organization or a UC campus foundation to constitute a waiver of the exemptions provided by this bill with regard to that record, except as specified. The bill would provide that a contract entered into after the effective date of this bill, which would prevent the disclosure of information required to be disclosed pursuant to this bill, is void and unenforceable. The bill would provide that its provisions do not apply to any records subject to a request made pursuant to the California Public Records Act.
