E-mail Warning

E-mail, a preferred form of communication for transmitting information by many government agencies, is subject to Florida’s public records law. A new law took effect on July 1, 2006, requiring counties, districts, municipal officers, departments, divisions, and other units of state and local government to post a notice on their Web sites regarding electronic mail.

This law amends the section of Chapter 668, Florida Statutes that deals with electronic mail communications. Governmental entities are now required to post the following notice on their Web sites:

“Under Florida law, e-mail addresses are public records. If you do not want your e-mail address released in response to a public records request, do not send electronic mail to this entity. Instead, contact this office by phone or in writing.”

Agencies should coordinate with their information technology department and legal office to ensure compliance with this new requirement.
