UT HJR008

Utah House of Representatives calls on the State Board of Education to collaborate with local education agencies (LEAs) to provide real-time fiscal impact information on proposed legislation during legislative sessions

Current fiscal note processes focus primarily on state-level impacts and may not capture varying effects on individual school districts and charter schools based on enrollment size, location, demographics, and infrastructure

Supports development of systematic processes including standardized templates, an online tracking system, and a rotating committee of LEA business administrators to review proposed legislation

Requests the State Board work with stakeholder organizations including the Utah School Boards Association, Utah Association of School Business Officials, and Utah School Superintendents Association to establish fiscal impact analysis mechanisms

No money appropriated; resolution is non-binding and expresses legislative support for improved LEA fiscal impact analysis systems
