             4657          Section 51. Section 7-2-9 is amended to read:
             4658           7-2-9. Conservatorship, receivership, or liquidation of institution -- Appointment
             4659      of receiver -- Review of actions.
             4660          (1) Upon taking possession of the institution, the commissioner may appoint a receiver
             4661      to perform the duties of the commissioner. Subject to any limitations, conditions, or
             4662      requirements specified by the commissioner and approved by the court, a receiver shall have all
             4663      the powers and duties of the commissioner under this chapter and the laws of this state to act as
             4664      a conservator, receiver, or liquidator of the institution. Actions of the commissioner in
             4665      appointing a receiver shall be subject to review only as provided in Section 7-2-2 .
             4666          (2) (a) If the deposits of the institution are to any extent insured by a federal deposit
             4667      insurance agency, the commissioner may appoint that agency as receiver. After receiving notice
             4668      in writing of the acceptance of the appointment, the commissioner shall file a certificate of
             4669      appointment in [his] the commissioner's office and with the clerk of the district court. After the
             4670      filing of the certificate, the possession of all assets, business, and property of the institution is
             4671      considered transferred from the institution and the commissioner to the agency, and title to all
             4672      assets, business, and property of the institution is vested in the agency without the execution of
             4673      any instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer, or endorsement.
             4674          (b) If a federal deposit insurance agency accepts an appointment as receiver, it has all
             4675      the powers and privileges provided by the laws of this state and the United States with respect
             4676      to the conservatorship, receivership, or liquidation of an institution and the rights of its
             4677      depositors, and other creditors, including authority to make an agreement for the purchase of


             4678      assets and assumption of deposit and other liabilities by another depository institution or take
             4679      other action authorized by Title 12 of the United States Code to maintain the stability of the
             4680      banking system. Such action by a federal deposit insurance agency may be taken upon approval
             4681      by the court, with or without prior notice. Such actions or agreements may be disapproved,
             4682      amended, or rescinded only upon a finding by the court that the decisions or actions of the
             4683      receiver are arbitrary, capricious, fraudulent, or contrary to law. In the event of any conflict
             4684      between state and federal law, including provisions for adjudicating claims against the institution
             4685      or receiver, the receiver shall comply with the federal law and any resulting violation of state
             4686      law shall not by itself constitute grounds for the court to disapprove the actions of the receiver
             4687      or impose any penalty for such violation.
             4688          (c) The commissioner or any receiver appointed by him shall possess all the rights and
             4689      claims of the institution against any person whose breach of fiduciary duty or violations of the
             4690      laws of this state or the United States applicable to depository institutions may have caused or
             4691      contributed to a condition which resulted in any loss incurred by the institution or to its assets in
             4692      the possession of the commissioner or receiver. As used in this Subsection (2)(c), fiduciary
             4693      duty includes those duties and standards applicable under statutes and laws of this state and the
             4694      United States to a director, officer, or other party employed by or rendering professional
             4695      services to a depository institution whose deposits are insured by a federal deposit insurance
             4696      agency. Upon taking possession of an institution, no person other than the commissioner or
             4697      receiver shall have standing to assert any such right or claim of the institution, including its
             4698      depositors, creditors, or shareholders unless the right or claim has been abandoned by the
             4699      commissioner or receiver with approval of the court. Any judgment based on the rights and
             4700      claims of the commissioner or receiver shall have priority in payment from the assets of the
             4701      judgment debtors.
             4702          (d) For the purposes of this section, the term "federal deposit insurance agency" shall
             4703      include the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union Administration
             4704      and any departments thereof or successors thereto, and any other federal agency authorized by
             4705      federal law to act as a conservator, receiver, and liquidator of a federally insured depository


             4706      institution, including the Resolution Trust Corporation and any department thereof or successor
             4707      thereto.
             4708          (3) The receiver may employ assistants, agents, accountants, and legal counsel. If the
             4709      receiver is not a federal deposit insurance agency, the compensation to be paid such assistants,
             4710      agents, accountants, and legal counsel shall be approved by the commissioner. All expenses
             4711      incident to the receivership shall be paid out of the assets of the institution. If a receiver is not a
             4712      federal deposit insurance agency, the receiver and any assistants and agents shall provide bond
             4713      or other security specified by the commissioner and approved by the court for the faithful
             4714      discharge of all duties and responsibilities in connection with the receivership including the
             4715      accounting for money received and paid. The cost of the bond shall be paid from the assets of
             4716      the institution. Suit may be maintained on the bond by the commissioner or by any person
             4717      injured by a breach of the condition of the bond.
             4718          (4) (a) Upon the appointment of a receiver for an institution in possession pursuant to
             4719      this chapter, the commissioner and the department are exempt from liability or damages for any
             4720      act or omission of any receiver appointed pursuant to this section.
             4721          (b) This section does not limit the right of the commissioner to prescribe and enforce
             4722      rules regulating a receiver in carrying out its duties with respect to an institution subject to the
             4723      jurisdiction of the department.
             4724          (c) Any act or omission of the commissioner or of any federal deposit insurance agency
             4725      as a receiver appointed by him while acting pursuant to this chapter shall be deemed to be the
             4726      exercise of a discretionary function within the meaning of Section [ 63-30d-301 ] 63G-7-301 of
             4727      the laws of this state or Section 28 U.S.C. 2680(a) of the laws of the United States.
             4728          (5) Actions, decisions, or agreements of a receiver under this chapter, other than
             4729      allowance or disallowance of claims under Section 7-2-6 , shall be subject to judicial review only
             4730      as follows:
             4731          (a) A petition for review shall be filed with the court having jurisdiction under Section
             4732      7-2-2 not more than 90 days after the date the act, decision, or agreement became effective or
             4733      its terms are filed with the court.


             4734          (b) The petition shall state in simple, concise, and direct terms the facts and principles
             4735      of law upon which the petitioner claims the act, decision, or agreement of the receiver was or
             4736      would be arbitrary, capricious, fraudulent, or contrary to law and how the petitioner is or may
             4737      be damaged thereby. The court shall dismiss any petition which fails to allege that the petitioner
             4738      would be directly injured or damaged by the act, decision, or agreement which is the subject of
             4739      the petition. Rule 11 of the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure shall apply to all parties with respect
             4740      to the allegations set forth in a petition or response.
             4741          (c) The receiver shall have 30 days after service of the petition within which to respond.
             4742          (d) All further proceedings are to be conducted in accordance with the Utah Rules of
             4743      Civil Procedure.
             4744          (6) All notices required under this section shall be made in accordance with the Utah
             4745      Rules of Civil Procedure and served upon the attorney general of the state of Utah, the
             4746      commissioner of financial institutions, the receiver of the institution appointed under this

             4748      such notice.

             6848          (b) As used in this section, "tax rate," when applied in respect to a school district,
             6849      includes any assessment to be made by the school district under Subsection (2) or Section

             6869          (I) is due an annual fee from the project entity; and
             6870          (II) agrees to have the fee base of the project determined in accordance with the

             6876      base of a project is determined for purposes of an annual fee.
             6877          (iii) For purposes of an annual fee imposed by a taxing jurisdiction within a county
             6878      described in Subsection (4)(b)(i)(B), the fee base determined by the agreement described in

             6880      jurisdiction.
             6881          (iv) (A) If there is not agreement as to the fee base of a portion of a project for any
             6882      year, for purposes of an annual fee, the State Tax Commission shall determine the value of that
             6883      portion of the project for which there is not an agreement:
             6884          (I) for that year; and
             6885          (II) using the same measure of value as is used for taxable property in the state.
             6886          (B) The valuation required by Subsection (4)(b)(iv)(A) shall be made by the State Tax
             6887      Commission in accordance with rules made by the State Tax Commission.

             6897      purchasers.
             6898          (5) (a) The responsibility of the project entity to make payment of the annual fees is
             6899      limited to the extent that there is legally available to the project entity, from bond proceeds or
             6900      revenues, monies to make these payments, and the obligation to make payments of the annual
             6901      fees is not otherwise a general obligation or liability of the project entity.
             6902          (b) No tax lien may attach upon any property or money of the project entity by virtue of
             6903      any failure to pay all or any part of an annual fee.
             6904          (c) The project entity or any purchaser may contest the validity of an annual fee to the
             6905      same extent as if the payment was a payment of the ad valorem property tax itself.

             6912      otherwise exempt from taxation pursuant to Utah Constitution, Article XIII, Section 3; and
             6913          (ii) for a public agency described in Subsection (6)(a)(i), shall be calculated in
             6914      accordance with Subsection (6)(b).
             6915          (b) The annual fee required under Subsection (6)(a) shall be an amount equal to the tax
             6916      rate or rates of the applicable taxing jurisdiction multiplied by the product of the following:

             6918      within the jurisdiction;
             6919          (ii) the percentage of the ownership interest of the public agency in the facility; and
             6920          (iii) the portion, expressed as a percentage, of the public agency's ownership interest
             6921      that is attributable to the capacity, service, or other benefit from the facility that is sold by the

             6941      project entities and other public agencies in facilities providing additional project capacity as
             6942      though all such ownership interests were held by a single project entity.
             6943          (ii) The in lieu excise tax shall be calculated as though the gross receipts derived with

             7096      means as user charges, special assessments, or payment from the proceeds of general taxes;
             7097          (iv) the relative extent to which the newly developed properties and the other properties
             7098      in the municipality will contribute to the cost of existing public facilities in the future;

             7100      the municipality is requiring their developers or owners, by contractual arrangement or
             7101      otherwise, to provide common facilities, inside or outside the proposed development, that have
             7102      been provided by the municipality and financed through general taxation or other means, apart
             7103      from user charges, in other parts of the municipality;
             7104          (vi) extraordinary costs, if any, in servicing the newly developed properties; and
             7105          (vii) the time-price differential inherent in fair comparisons of amounts paid at different

             7108      (5) on or after July 1, 2000 shall also prepare a summary of the written analysis, designed to be
             7109      understood by a lay person.
             7110          (6) Each local political subdivision that adopts an impact fee enactment under Section
             7111      11-36-202 on or after July 1, 2000 shall, at least 14 days before adopting the enactment, submit
             7112      to each public library within the local political subdivision:
             7113          (a) a copy of the written analysis required by Subsection (5)(a); and


             7114          (b) a copy of the summary required by Subsection (5)(c).
             7115          (7) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to repeal or otherwise eliminate any
             7116      impact fee in effect on the effective date of this chapter that is pledged as a source of revenues

             8831      date specified in the order.
             8832          (4) If the administrator suspends, revokes, or denies renewal of the registration of a

             8878      the Property Rights Ombudsman shall mediate, or conduct or arrange arbitration for, disputes

             8889      the Property Rights Ombudsman shall follow the procedures and requirements of Title 78,

             8891          (ii) In applying Title 78, Chapter 31a, Utah Uniform Arbitration Act, the arbitrator and

             8895      provided for in this section was appointed as arbitrator by the court.
             8896          (iii) For the purpose of an arbitration conducted under this section, if the dispute to be
             8897      arbitrated is not already the subject of legal action, the district court having jurisdiction over the
             8898      county where the private property involved in the dispute is located is the court referred to in
             8899      Title 78, Chapter 31a, Utah Uniform Arbitration Act.
             8900          (iv) An arbitration award under this chapter may not be vacated under the provisions of
             8901      Subsection 78-31a-124 (1)(e) because of the lack of an arbitration agreement between the

             8903          (b) The Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman shall issue a written statement
             8904      declining to arbitrate or to appoint an arbitrator when, in the opinion of the Office of the
             8905      Property Rights Ombudsman:


             8906          (i) the issues are not ripe for review;
             8907          (ii) assuming the alleged facts are true, no cause of action exists under United States or
             8908      Utah law;
             8909          (iii) all issues raised are beyond the scope of the Office of the Property Rights
             8910      Ombudsman's statutory duty to review; or
             8911          (iv) the arbitration is otherwise not appropriate.
             8912          (c) (i) The Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman shall appoint another person to
             8913      arbitrate a dispute when:
             8914          (A) either party objects to the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman serving as the
             8915      arbitrator and agrees to pay for the services of another arbitrator;
             8916          (B) the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman declines to arbitrate the dispute for a
             8917      reason other than those stated in Subsection (3)(b) and one or both parties are willing to pay for
             8918      the services of another arbitrator; or
             8919          (C) the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman determines that it is appropriate to
             8920      appoint another person to arbitrate the dispute with no charge to the parties for the services of
             8921      the appointed arbitrator.
             8922          (ii) In appointing another person to arbitrate a dispute, the Office of the Property Rights
             8923      Ombudsman shall appoint an arbitrator who is agreeable to:
             8924          (A) both parties; or
             8925          (B) the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman and the party paying for the
             8926      arbitrator.
             8927          (iii) The Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman may, on its own initiative or upon
             8928      agreement of both parties, appoint a panel of arbitrators to conduct the arbitration.
             8929          (iv) The Department of Commerce may pay an arbitrator per diem and reimburse
             8930      expenses incurred in the performance of the arbitrator's duties at the rates established by the
             8931      Division of Finance under Sections 63A-3-106 and 63A-3-107 .
             8932          (d) In arbitrating a dispute, the arbitrator shall apply the relevant statutes, case law,

             8934      determining the award.
             8935          (e) The property owner and government entity may agree in advance of arbitration that
             8936      the arbitration is binding and that no de novo review may occur.
             8937          (f) Arbitration by or through the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman is not
             8938      necessary before bringing legal action to adjudicate any claim.
             8939          (g) The lack of arbitration by or through the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman
             8940      does not constitute, and may not be interpreted as constituting, a failure to exhaust available
             8941      administrative remedies or as a bar to bringing legal action.
             8942          (h) Arbitration under this section is not subject to [Title 63, Chapter 46b] Title 63G,
             8943      Chapter 4, Administrative Procedures Act, or Title 78, Chapter 31b, Alternative Dispute
             8944      Resolution Act.
             8945          (i) Within 30 days after an arbitrator issues a final award, and except as provided in
             8946      Subsection (3)(e), any party may submit the award, or any issue upon which the award is based,
             8947      to the district court for de novo review.
             8948          (4) The filing with the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman of a request for
             8949      mediation or arbitration of a constitutional taking issue does not stay any county or municipal
             8950      land use decision, including the decision of a board of adjustment.
             8951          (5) Members of the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman may not be compelled to
             8952      testify in a civil action filed concerning the subject matter of any review, mediation, or
             8953      arbitration by the Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman.

ARTICLE I. POLICY AND PURPOSE

             11906          The party states recognize that the proper employment of scientific and technological
             11907      discoveries and advances in nuclear and related fields and direct and collateral application and
             11908      adaptation of processes and techniques developed in connection therewith, properly correlated
             11909      with the other resources of the region, can assist substantially in the industrial progress of the
             11910      West and the further development of the economy of the region. They also recognize that
             11911      optimum benefit from nuclear and related scientific or technological resources, facilities and
             11912      skills requires systematic encouragement, guidance, assistance, and promotion from the party
             11913      states on a co-operative basis. It is the policy of the party states to undertake such co-operation
             11914      on a continuing basis. It is the purpose of this compact to provide the instruments and
             11915      framework for such a co-operative effort in nuclear and related fields, to enhance the economy
             11916      of the West and contribute to the individual and community well-being and the region's people.

             12098      aid, have the same powers, duties, rights, privileges and immunities as comparable officers and
             12099      employees of the state to which they are rendering aid.
             12100          (c) No party state or its officers or employees rendering outside aid pursuant to this
             12101      compact shall be liable on account of any act or omission on their part while so engaged, or on

             12105      request for aid, shall be assumed and borne by the requesting state.

             12109      transportation, wages, salaries and maintenance of officers, employees and equipment incurred
             12110      in connection with such requests: provided that nothing herein contained shall prevent any
             12111      assisting party state from assuming such loss, damage, expense or other cost or from loaning
             12112      such equipment or from donating such services to the receiving party state without charge or
             12113      cost.

             12117      compact, in the same manner and on the same terms as if the injury or death were sustained
             12118      within the state by or in which the officer or employee was regularly employed.

ARTICLE VII. SUPPLEMENTARY AGREEMENTS

             12120          (a) To the extent that the board has not undertaken an activity or project which would

             12128      effective prior to its submission to and approval by the board. The board shall give such
             12129      approval unless it finds that the supplementary agreement or activity or project contemplated

             12131      by or participated in by the board.
             12132          (b) Unless all of the party states participate in a supplementary agreement, any cost or
             12133      costs thereof shall be borne separately by the states party thereto. However, the board may

             12135          (c) No party to a supplementary agreement entered into pursuant to this article shall be
             12136      relieved thereby of any obligation or duty assumed by said party state under or pursuant to this
             12137      compact, except that timely and proper performance of such obligation or duty by means of the
             12138      supplementary agreement may be offered as performance pursuant to the compact.
             12139          (d) The provisions to this Article shall apply to supplementary agreements and activities
             12140      thereunder, but shall not be construed to repeal or impair any authority which officers or
             12141      agencies of party states may have pursuant to other laws to undertake cooperative arrangements
             12142      or projects.
             12143

             12442      undermine our American system of free elections, or that hinders or prevents the free expression
             12443      of the will of the voters, including practices intended to hinder or prevent any eligible person
             12444      from registering to vote or voting.
             12445          I SHALL NOT coerce election help or campaign contributions for myself or for any

             12519      candidate's name to the governor.
             12520          (3) A judicial nominating commission may not nominate a justice or judge who was not
