Homeless Services Land Use Amendments

HB 523 prohibits Utah's Office of Homeless Services from using state funds to establish or operate shelters with 300 or more beds year-round (defined as "large-scale, low-barrier shelters"), excluding temporary emergency shelters. It repeals a law allowing eminent domain for unincorporated city-owned land related to homeless services and makes technical updates to existing statutes. The bill does not appropriate new funding and specifically restricts state appropriations, not federal funds. It affects how state money can be allocated for homeless shelter infrastructure but does not change services for temporary shelters or existing homeless management systems.
