We’re going to try a new look to post general schedules on the blog. Instead of posting all of the schedule numbers, this post only has the new schedules, but each existing general schedule, with its retention, are attached if you want to review those.
These schedules have been previously posted, therefore they have already been added to the State Records Committee’s May 12th meeting agenda. Remember, there is no designation or classification of general schedules because you determine that by your own record series. You can submit comments on this blog, to Rebekkah Shaw at rshaw@utah.gov and at the meeting May 12th.
To see what existing general schedules will be overwritten by the general schedules listed, please check out the Financial Crosswalk. (Click the link to view the document.)
