Data Practices Act

The Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (Minnesota Statute, Chapter 13) classifies data and provides the legal basis for determining how data and information are managed and distributed by government entities such as the City of St. Louis Park. The Data Practices Act prescribes that data is public - available to anyone who requests it - unless classified otherwise. Public data is available to anyone who requests it. Private data is available only to the data subject, person(s) authorized by the data subject, and City staff whose job requires access to the data.
