MINUTES AND ADMINISTRATIVE RECORDS, 1985-1986.
0.5 cu. ft. and 1 microfilm reel
A separate
agency
history is available.
DESCRIPTION: These minutes document the
regular and special meetings and activities of the Insurance Code Task Force
(ICTF) as it reviewed and amended the draft Title 31A, Utah Insurance Code
(enacted by SB 232, 1985) before it became active June 1, 1986. The minutes
record the task force's organization and administration, its review and
discussion of particularly troublesome issues and specific code sections, and
its receipt of comments from interested outside parties during its regular
public hearings. This series primarily consists of the meeting materials
distributed to each member of the task force at its regular meetings. These
materials typically include meeting agenda and memos; minutes of the prior
meeting; and numerous appendices including: responses to draft amendment
assignments made at the prior meeting, unsubstantial content changes certain to
be approved, and background materials on items to be discussed at the current
meeting.
ARRANGEMENT: Arrangement proceeds
numerically by file number, thereunder chronologically by year, month, and day;
meeting materials are arranged by date of meeting. Original manuscript copies
of the meeting minutes are included (where available) with the agenda and
accompanying materials for that meeting. Approved meeting minutes are usually
included with the agenda and accompanying materials of the subsequent meeting.
Four 4x5 inch computer floppy disks follow the regular administrative files in
chronological order.
RESEARCH NOTE: Individual contents lists
for each of the four floppy disks are filed with the disks they accompany. The
discs include meeting agenda, memos, minutes and appendices for specific
meetings, as well as correspondence, schedules, procedural guides and summaries
of issues. Most of the material on the discs is available in paper format in
the ICTF minutes files. Access to the contents of the disks is subject to the
availability of appropriate computer/reading equipment.

CUSTODY HISTORY: As head staff of the
Insurance Law Revision Commission (ILRC) and the ICTF, Dane Leavitt maintained
the records through most of the recodification project. At the conclusion of
the project in March 1986, the Insurance Department indicated their plan to
discard the records. Recognizing their value, Mr. Leavitt took the records and
stored them in the attic of his office building in Cedar City, Utah. Over the
years continuing interest in the original intent of the new insurance code
brought numerous attorneys and researchers to Cedar City to review the records.
At Mr. Leavitt's bidding, the Utah State Archives agreed to take custody of the
records in September 2002. Alice Cone and Arlene Schmuland, processing and
reference archivists at the Utah State Archives, traveled to Cedar City in
October 2002 and returned with seven cubic foot boxes and two banker's boxes.
PROCESSING NOTE: Rummaging by numerous
researchers through the documents (over the 15 intervening years before their
transfer of custody to the Archives) left the records in a state of
considerable disorder. Through archival processing the records have been
returned to their original arrangement as far as was possible. Michael A.
Church processed this series in the Spring and Summer of 2003. Prior to
transferring the records, Dane Leavitt collected those with "the most probative
value to the research of legislative history" into one box to facilitate such
research. Identified as "Box 1" of the original nine boxes transferred, this
box included the March 25, 1983 initial draft (with extensive drafter's
comments), the minutes of the ILRC and ICTF respectively, and miscellaneous
documents related to SB 232 and its passing. During processing, these documents
were returned to their original placement in the records' initial arrangement
and notes were included in the individual series inventories to direct
researchers to their final location.
