How GRAMA Applies in Cache County
Utah's public records law is GRAMA. It stands for the Government Records Access and Management Act. You can find the full text at Utah Code Title 63G, Chapter 2. This law says that most government records are open to the public. It covers all Cache County offices. If you want a record and the office says no, you can file a GRAMA request. The office has to respond in 10 business days.
Some records are private or controlled under GRAMA. Medical info, some tax data, and certain law enforcement details fall in those categories. But the default is public. The Cache County residents directory relies on this law for access. Fees for copies are set by each office. The cost is usually small. You pay per page or per record. If the office denies your request, you can appeal to the State Records Committee. GRAMA is the backbone of open records access in Cache County and across all of Utah.
