House weighs sale‑and‑appraisal rules for Developmental Center land; amendment debates appraisal standard
Summary
Representatives debated House Bill 132, which would require additional appraisals and legislative notification before sale of undeveloped Developmental Center land in American Fork; members argued over whether the bill should require a specific appraisal organization designation (MAI) and heard concerns from disability advocates about preserving proceeds for residents.
House Bill 132, introduced Feb. 25, would change the process for sale of state land at the Developmental Center in American Fork, requiring two appraisals and legislative notification to help ensure proceeds benefit a trust for people with disabilities. Representative Margaret Dayton, the sponsor, explained the parcel’s proximity to new development and urged careful stewardship of what she described as very valuable property.
