AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Several changes to how the Point of the Mountain State Land Authority — the state body overseeing development of the former Utah State Prison site in Draper — operates and is funded are made by this bill. It cuts the share of state sales tax revenue directed to the authority from 50% to 25%, reduces the property tax augmentation share the authority receives on sold parcels from 75% to 25%, and adjusts privilege tax (a tax paid by private businesses leasing state-owned land) distributions depending on whether land qualifies as "phase one." The bill also requires the authority to coordinate with Draper before selling land to private buyers and give the city a draft land use regulation, while giving municipalities broader authority to coordinate land use planning with state agencies that control state-owned land. Additionally, it requires that a majority of board members on public infrastructure districts created by development authorities be appointed by the authority's governing body, and limits those districts from issuing new bonds once bonds have already been issued.
