Join us for GRAMA 101, a free webinar on requesting public records in Utah, April 23, 12-1 pm.
There are countless public records out there. Police reports, budget documents, e-mails of public officials and more. Our rule of thumb is that if taxpayer dollars touch it, there's probably a record about it you can request.
If you are new to Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act, or GRAMA, then you will want to tune into our free webinar on April 23, 12-1 pm.
We will go through the basics of filing GRAMA requests and offer advice on how to write them to most effectively get the records you are after. We'll also talk about how to fight records request denials and teach you about the rights you have to public records in Utah.
