Governor’s Office Transition Module
10/28/2003
The Office of the Governor begins a nine-day-transition period now that Gov. Mike Leavitt is confirmed to lead the United States Environmental Protection Agency. The transition will culminate with a farewell address and inauguration next week.
The guiding principle for this transitionary time is extensive collaboration between the Governor and Lt. Governor on major decisions. This includes appointments to boards and commissions, budget deliberations, executive orders and all policy matters.
