Plain-language change summary

The amendment to Bill SB 286 involves the removal of a phrase that specified reliance on another section for definitions. Instead of referencing Section 58-1-102, the new version defines "Building" directly within this chapter. This change simplifies the definition process, making it clearer and more straightforward for readers and stakeholders. By eliminating the dependence on another section, it aims to enhance understanding and accessibility in the law.
