Residential Notification Amendments

HB 98 amends Utah law to require regulated residential facilities (including treatment programs, recovery residences, and social detox centers) to notify nearby residents before opening. Specifically, facilities must mail or post notices to properties within 300 feet of their location, including details about services, client types, and contact information for a facility representative. This applies to all new facilities starting operations after May 6, 2026, and affects both the facilities and adjacent property owners/residents. The bill does not change licensing fees or funding but clarifies notification requirements to increase community transparency.
