Page 5 of 5
Mayor Muir opened the discussion for Item A of the Executive Session at 7:33 p.m.
City Manager Noblitt questioned why his position was listed on the agenda since, during the
past discussion, he understood that he would communicate the position’s goals and objectives
by individually contacting Councilmembers to finalize both. He stated it was not clear that his
position would be placed on the agenda for additional discussion to come to a consensus based
on the prior meeting. He then stated that his perception was that since he was contacted by the
third-party attorney and asked if he would consider dropping his recent complaint, and chose
not to drop the complaint, then his employment was placed on the next agenda for discussion.
City Manager Noblitt then stated these items may not correlate.
Mayor Muir stated they did not correlate.
Additional discussion ensued regarding clarifying and communicating the goals and objectives
to the City Manager.

Item 6.
2
1.0 INTRODUCTION
On December 7, 2022, Governor Greg Abbott required all state agencies to ban the
video-sharing application TikTok from all state-owned and state-issued devices and
networks over the Chinese Communist Party’s ability to use the application for
surveilling Texans. Governor Abbott also directed the Texas Department of Public Safety
(DPS) and the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) to develop a plan
providing state agencies guidance on managing personal devices used to conduct state
business. Following the issuance of the Governor’s directive, the 88th Texas Legislature
passed Senate Bill 1893, which prohibits the use of covered applications on
governmental entity devices.
As required by the Governor’s directive and Senate Bill 1893, this policy prohibits the
installation or use of covered applications or prohibited technologies on applicable
devices.
2.0 COVERED APPLICATIONS POLICY FOR CITY OF SANGER
2.1 SCOPE AND DEFINITIONS
Pursuant to Senate Bill 1893, this policy applies to all City of Sanger full- and part-time
employees, contractors, paid or unpaid interns, and other users of government
networks. All City of Sanger employees are responsible for complying with this policy.
Under this policy, a covered application is:
The social media service TikTok or any successor application or service developed
or provided by ByteDance Limited, or an entity owned by ByteDance Limited.
A social media application or service specified by proclamation of the governor
under Government Code Section 620.005.
2.2 COVERED APPLICATIONS ON CITY OF SANGER-OWNED OR LEASED
DEVICES
Except where approved exceptions apply, the use or installation of covered applications
is prohibited on all City of Sanger-owned or -leased devices, including cell phones,
tablets, desktop and laptop computers, and other internet-capable devices.
34
Item 6.
3
The City of Sanger will identify, track, and manage all government-owned or -leased
devices including mobile phones, tablets, laptops, desktop computers, or any other
internet-capable devices to:
a. Prohibit the installation of a covered application.
b. Prohibit the use of a covered application.
c. Remove a covered application from a City of Sanger-owned or -leased device
that was on the device prior to the passage of S.B. 1893 (88th Leg, R.S.).
d. Remove an application from a City of Sanger-owned or -leased device if the
Governor issues a proclamation identifying it as a covered application.
The City of Sanger will manage all City-owned or leased mobile devices by
implementing one or more of the security measures listed below:
a. Restrict access to “app stores” or unauthorized software repositories to prevent
the installation of unauthorized applications.
b. Maintain the ability to remotely wipe non-compliant or compromised mobile
devices.
c. Maintain the ability to remotely uninstall unauthorized software from mobile
devices.
d. Other City-implemented security measures.
2.3 ONGOING AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGY THREATS
To provide protection against ongoing and emerging technological threats to the
State’s sensitive information and critical infrastructure, DPS and DIR will regularly
monitor and evaluate additional social media applications or services that pose a risk to
this state.
DIR will annually submit to the Governor a list of social media applications and services
identified as posing a risk to Texas. The Governor may proclaim items on this list as
covered applications that are subject to this policy.
If the Governor identifies an item on the DIR-posted list described by this section, then
the City of Sanger will remove and prohibit the covered application.
The City of Sanger may also prohibit social media applications or services in addition to
those specified by proclamation of the Governor.
35
Item 6.
4
2.4 BRING YOUR OWN DEVICE POLICY
If the City of Sanger has a “Bring Your Own Device” (BYOD) program, then the City of
Sanger may consider prohibiting the installation or operation of covered applications on
employee-owned devices that are used to conduct government business.
2.5 COVERED APPLICATION EXCEPTIONS
The City of Sanger may permit exceptions authorizing the installation and use of a
covered application on City-owned or -leased devices consistent with the authority
provided by Government Code Chapter 620.
Government Code Section 620.004 only allows the City of Sanger to install and use a
covered application on an applicable device to the extent necessary for:
(1) Providing law enforcement; or
(2) Developing or implementing information security measures.
If the City of Sanger authorizes an exception allowing for the installation and use of a
covered application, the City must use measures to mitigate the risks posed to the state
during the application’s use including measures that the City deems appropriate for its
own policy. The City of Sanger must document whichever measures it took to mitigate
the risks posed to the state during the use of the covered application.
3.0 POLICY COMPLIANCE
The City of Sanger will verify compliance with this policy through various methods,
including but not limited to, IT/security system reports and feedback to leadership.
An employee found to have violated this policy may be subject to disciplinary action,
including termination of employment.
4.0 POLICY REVIEW
This policy will be reviewed annually and updated as necessary to reflect changes in
state law, additions to applications identified under Government Code Section 620.006,
updates to the prohibited technology list posted to DIR’s website, or to suit the needs of
the City of Sanger.
