In addition, at least annually, that is, once per year, the city shall review the program, and if deemed necessary, implement changes to the program, which changes may be necessitated by evolving patters of identity theft or the city’s actual experiences with identity theft during the period of time immediately preceding the evaluation of the program.

(2) Specifically, the aforementioned report shall address the effectiveness of the policies and procedures set forth in the program and shall provide a summary of any identity theft incident(s), if any, and the response(s) to said incident(s), if any, taken by the city.
(3) In addition, said report shall include any recommendations that the City Clerk-Treasurer has for changing, modifying, rewriting or reconsidering any specific aspect of the program, if any.
