Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                      STATEMENT  OF  PURPOSE
RS08442
The purpose of this legislation is to clarify the role of the Idaho
State Historical Society to preserve the history of Idaho. It
eliminates the partisan requirements of the Historical Society
Board of Trustees and requires they be appointed based on
qualifications related to historic and cultural heritage
preservation, interpretation and education, and representing
districts comparable to those used for the Judiciary. The
legislation also limits the number of terms trustees can serve. 




FISCAL  IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this legislation.
