§ 211. Printed and electronically recorded proceedings of the board.
1. The board of supervisors of each county, as soon after the close of
each calendar year as practicable, shall cause to be printed in bound
volume or recorded by electronic means, or both, copies of its
proceedings, certified by the clerk of the board as a true copy. Such
printed volume or electronic record shall contain all local laws
consecutively numbered and all resolutions adopted by the board during
the year. The printed volume or electronic record of proceedings may
include reports of committees, officers and state departments. The board
of supervisors may direct the printing or electronic recording in
summarized or tabular form of county audits, town budgets, reports of
bonded indebtedness, tax statements, official canvass and such
proceedings as it shall determine to be in the public interest. At least
one copy of such volume or electronic record shall be filed with or
electronically transmitted to the county clerk and each city and town
clerk within the county. At least one copy shall be filed with or
electronically transmitted to the state librarian. Additional copies may
be printed or electronically recorded and distributed in the discretion
of the board.

Such annual volume or electronic record when certified by the clerk as
a true copy, shall constitute and become the book of records and
proceedings of such board.

2. The board of supervisors may cause to be printed or electronically
recorded after each session, copies of its proceedings for distribution
among its members, county officers or for exchange with other counties.
The board may also cause copies of such proceedings to be published
after each session in such newspaper or newspapers, and for such period
of time, as may be designated.

3. The board of supervisors of each county shall ensure that a printed
copy is available upon request.

4. For purposes of this section, the terms "electronic means",
"electronic record or recording" and "electronically transmitted" shall
generally refer to the recording, copying and transfer of data by means
of a computer, computer disk or directly over the internet.
