Government Records Classification Amendments

Summary

The bill revises Utah’s records law so that any record documenting a governmental entity’s receipt or expenditure of funds—such as budgets, vouchers, ledgers, and vendor compensation—is classified as public. It also refines the definition of “initial contact report” and allows private classification of portions that reveal a taxpayer’s property‑tax exemption, deferral, abatement, or other relief. The changes become effective on May 6 2026.
