Digital dignity ordinance passes first reading with a change to its data-collection section, 5-0 (Ordinance No. 8198)
Ordinance No. 8198 establishes the digital dignity, rights, and privacy ordinance, incorporates the Amarillo principles for dignified digital governance, requires annual updates, and provides for transparency, accountability and data privacy. At first reading the council asked for revisions to Section 2.2, and the CIO said the language could be changed to say "The city shall only collect personal date [sic] for effective delivery of public services." It passed 5-0 with those revisions.[1]

The May 27, 2025 minutes record item 10.E, the first reading of Ordinance No. 8198. The recorded motion, by Councilmember Don Tipps seconded by Councilmember Les Simpson, reads "Motion to adopt Ordinance No. 8191 with the revisions in 2.2, as discussed"; it passed 5-0. Ordinance No. 8191 is a different ordinance (a rezoning), so the number in the motion appears to be a misprint in the minutes. [1]
