Plain-Language Summary
AI-generated summary, reviewed by Better Utah staff.
H.B. 567 expands the definition of a "recreational infrastructure project" under Utah's Outdoor Recreational Infrastructure Grant Program to include restoring natural features — such as waterbodies — in addition to building or improving facilities and installations. This change makes restoration projects eligible for state grant funding administered by the Division of Outdoor Recreation. Communities seeking to restore a local river, lake, or other natural feature for public outdoor recreation use could now qualify for this funding.
