Conflict of Interest Disclosure Amendments

Summary

The bill updates Utah law so anyone filing to run for a municipal, county, school board or special district office must complete a standardized conflict‑of‑interest disclosure. The form now asks about unresolved tax liens and certain felony or misdemeanor convictions, and the completed statement must be posted online for public review. Candidates who do not submit the form cannot have their declaration of candidacy accepted, and private parties may sue to enforce the requirement.
