Board adopts updated identity‑theft 'red flags' policy modeled on Orange County guidance

Warren County’s board approved an updated identity‑theft prevention policy based on Orange County’s 'red flags' model.

The chair presented the item as "a request to adopt the updated Orange County policy for red flags identity theft prevention." Discussion on the item was brief and a supervisor moved/seconded the motion; the board approved the update by voice vote.

Why it matters: 'Red flags' identity‑theft policies set procedures to identify and respond to patterns, practices or specific activities that indicate possible identity theft in transactions involving the county. The update adopts model language to standardize county protections.

The transcript records the motion and voice approval; no roll‑call tally or implementation schedule was provided during the meeting.
