the Utah Code database for publication by amending Subsection
78-3a-307(9) to read:
"(9) If, following the shelter hearing, the child is placed with a
person who is not a parent of the child, a relative of the child, a
friend of a parent of the child, or a former foster parent of the child,
priority shall be given to a foster placement with a man and a
woman who are married to each other, unless it is in the best
interests of the child to place the child with a single foster parent.""
