Welcome to UACD’s Reporting & Compliance Resource Hub Conservation districts receive public tax dollars, which means they must meet important transparency and reporting requirements. We understand that these state requirements can sometimes feel overwhelming that’s exactly why we’re here to help. UACD created these tutorials and resources to make reporting clearer, more approachable, and easier to manage. Using the State of Utah’s official Special District and Special Service District requirements as our foundation, we’ve broken down key reports, deadlines, and rules into straightforward, district-focused videos and tools. Our goal is to help you stay compliant while feeling confident and supported every step of the way. This page is designed as a helpful guide and support resource. It does not replace official state guidance or legal requirements. For the most current and authoritative information, districts should always refer to the State of Utah’s Required Reports and Deadlines for Special Districts and Special Service Districts (link below).
