CA AB730

Requires public agencies to promptly provide written notice to employees when receiving public records requests for their personnel, medical, or similar records, or records disclosing their personal identity related to work duties.

Mandates agencies provide at least 21 days' written notice to affected employees before disclosing or making available records described above.

Expands the definition of "unusual circumstances" under the Public Records Act to include the need to provide advance written notices to employees, allowing agencies to extend response timelines accordingly.

Makes legislative findings that the bill furthers constitutional purposes relating to public access to local government meetings and writings, and declares no state reimbursement is required as mandated costs fall within constitutional scope.
