GRAMA defines a “record” as “a book, letter, document, paper, map, plan, photograph, film, card, tape, recording, electronic data, or other documentary material regardless of physical form . . . .” However, there are several exceptions, such as notes and drafts which are not subject to disclosure. For a complete list and explanation of what does and does not constitute a record, see Utah Code § 63G-2-103(22)(a).
Are all records subject to disclosure?
