The Utah State Tax Commission voted unanimously to designate Deputy Executive Director Deanna Herring as acting executive director during Executive Director Scott Smith's absence and until the commission appoints a new executive director. Commissioner Rebecca Rockwell explained the motion, citing Smith's absence to care for a family member and his upcoming retirement, and moved to appoint Herring "with no change to her current compensation and emoluments."
After the roll call confirmed unanimous approval, Herring briefly addressed the Commission: "I just wanna say thank you for the support, and, I'm here to serve and get what we need to do done." Commissioners praised Herring's experience and expressed confidence in her leadership during the transition.
