DETERMINATION OF THE APPEALS HEARING OFFICER CONCERNING AN ANCHOR LOCATION
Pursuant to UTAH CODE ANN. 52-4-207(4), the Cottonwood Heights Appeals Hearing Officer hereby determines that conducting any meetings of the Appeals Hearing Officer within 30 days after this date at an anchor location presents a substantial risk to the health and safety of those who may be present at the anchor location. It is well recognized that a global pandemic currently exists related to the COVID-19 coronavirus, which has the potential to overwhelm Utah's healthcare system. Therefore, due to the state of emergency caused by the global pandemic, I find that conducting a meeting at an anchor location under the current state of public health emergency constitutes a substantial risk to the health and safety of those who may be present at the location.
