Salt Lake leaders defend Lt. Gov. in abuse probe and energy on water bills
Gov. Gary Herbert backed Lt. Gov. Greg Bell amid a Davis County probe into alleged power abuse in a neighbor’s child abuse case. DCFS chief Palmer DePaulis accused Bell of interference as Herbert stressed oversight and accountability while noting emotionally charged parental rights. In separate items, SB 80 would let some mentally healthy but flagged individuals petition to be removed from firearm databases, and SB 109 would let municipalities seek advisory water-right opinions with a 120 day deadline while lawmakers debate control over water decisions. Local lawmaker HB 318 setback stalls class-size reform without funding, as Rep. Becky Edwards and supporters rebalance strategy for K-3 caps.
