APPRAISAL

This information would be needed by the department to take action against anyone violating the health code. This is a class B misdemeanor, which has a two year statute of limitations. However, if the violator has had another violation within the previous two years, the second violation becomes a class A misdemeanor. Therefore, a four year retention will be needed to ensure that the necessary information will be on hand to prosecute a violator of the code. UCA 26-24-22(4) and 76-1-302(1)(a)
