2-PROTECTED INFORMATION REQUEST FORM.docx

This is a Protected Information Request Form issued by the City of West Jordan, Utah, in connection with a competitive procurement for carnival services. The form is designed to allow vendors submitting proposals for the Beet Days event carnival services contract to identify and designate specific information within their proposals as confidential or protected business information in accordance with Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA), codified under Utah Code Ann. § 63G-2-101 et seq. Vendors must clearly specify which sections of their proposal contain proprietary or confidential information and provide adequate descriptions of their confidentiality claims. The form requires vendors to submit their company name, contact name, and email address, along with detailed identification of protected information sections.

The City of West Jordan reserves the right to classify any proposal submitted as a public record if the vendor fails to comply with GRAMA requirements or does not adequately justify confidentiality claims. The City may decline to designate information as protected if vendors submit blanket claims of business confidentiality without sufficient specificity or detail. This procedural requirement applies to vendors responding to the Carnival Services—Beet Days proposal, which seeks qualified amusement companies with large-scale carnival experience to provide services for the July 8–10, 2027 event. The form serves as a critical compliance tool ensuring that vendor submissions meet statutory transparency requirements while allowing legitimate protection of genuinely confidential business information.
