UDOT seeks small technical corrections to state highway descriptions; committee adopts bill as committee bill
Summary
UDOT presented technical clarifications to the legal descriptions of two state highways in Utah County to precisely identify their begin and end points for GIS and maintenance purposes. The committee moved to adopt the draft as a committee bill and favorably recommended it; the motion passed unanimously.
Leif Helder (UDOT) told the committee the proposed legislation would make two small, technical corrections to the written descriptions of state highways in Utah County so the department’s GIS and maintenance records match statutory text. Helder said the changes do not transfer roads between jurisdictions and do not create new state maintenance obligations — they clarify where the roads begin and end.
Representative Kristofferson moved to adopt the drafted road‑jurisdiction amendments as a committee bill and to favorably recommend it to the Legislature. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote.
Committee members discussed jurisdictional sponsorship for the bill; a Utah County legislator volunteered to carry the bill on the floor.
