What This Bill Does
This bill addresses provisions related to Jordan River improvement projects.
Key Provisions
This bill:
- modifies how the Division of Forestry, Fire, and State Lands (division) expends money related to a Jordan River improvement project, including:
- allowing the division to expend money for an activity along the entire length of the Jordan River; and
- requiring the division to consult with the Jordan River Commission before expending money for an improvement project;
- creates a matching grant program for counties and municipalities to fund improvement projects that increase access to a recreational activity on the Jordan River;
- appropriates funding for the matching grant program; and
- makes technical and conforming changes.
Plain-Language Summary
AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
S.B. 130 expands the state's Jordan River improvement program by removing a previous geographic restriction that limited spending to a specific stretch of the river between SR-201 and 5400 South, allowing the Division of Forestry, Fire, and State Lands to fund safety, recreation, conservation, and maintenance activities along the entire length of the Jordan River. The bill also creates a matching grant program — funded with $2 million from the state General Fund — that counties and municipalities can apply for to improve recreational access along the river, as long as they match the grant dollar-for-dollar and certify the funds will be used for recreational access or public safety improvements. Before spending any of these funds, the division must consult with the Jordan River Commission.
