RULE ANALYSIS
Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:
Each year the Utah State Legislature and the Division of Parks and Recreation Board review and approve the Division of Park and Recreation's (Division) fee schedule.
Summary of the rule or change:
For Fiscal Year 2014, the Legislature passed S.B. 2 (2013 General Session), which included the Division's fee schedule. The change allows State Park management to increase fees up to the cap the legislature set if there is a need in the future. Fees will vary for programs and parks based upon the fee schedule.
State statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:
- Subsection 79-4-203(8)
Anticipated cost or savings to:
the state budget:
There are no expected costs or saving to the state budget. Although there are no projected costs or savings associated with implementing the Division's enacted fee schedule, any unforeseen costs will be paid for via the Division's restricted fund appropriation.
local governments:
There are no predicted costs or saving to local governments. This affects state parks only.
small businesses:
There are no projected costs or saving to small businesses. This change is for state parks only and should not affect small business.
persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities:
There is a possibility that visitors could see fee increases based upon S.B. 2 (2013). The legislature set a cap and park management may make increases up to that cap if management sees a need in the future. Cost increase is unknown at this time.
Compliance costs for affected persons:
Compliance costs could vary for visitors to state parks. The fee schedule change allows state park managers and administration to raise the fees up to the cap the legislature set. Compliance costs are unknown at this time.
Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:
There should be little fiscal impact on business.
