As far as utilizing amateur radio, it's very different here in Utah where there are nearly 450 stakes along the Wasatch Front. Ham radio can play a part, but there isn't enough spectrum available for each stake here to have their own frequency set aside for nets and emergencies.
Interesting theory, but doubtful. What usually gets outdated by a new Handbook is the Official Communications (letters) which tend to act as addendums to the Handbook. A new Handbook doesn't automatically supersede all other guides.
I'm not sure, but Handbook 35.5.8 would apply. It might be called for in the mentioned "Temporary Use Agreement ".casper684 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 17, 2022 4:18 am I was wondering in particular I have reference to the Facilities Management with regards to a "Hold Harmless" form.
Requests by non-members, such as non-profit groups, should be directed to the Stake High Councilor assigned to scheduling. They will communicate with the assigned high councilor. As outlined in the Facilities Management Guidelines, these groups will generally be required to complete a Hold Harmless Agreement form. Just wondering if this is still the case? Thank you..
