STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS08918
The purpose of this resolution is to provide authorization to the State Board of Education to
allow Idaho State University to proceed with construction of a facility on the ISU campus to be
known as the L.E. & Thelma E. Stephens Performing Arts Center pursuant to the requirements of
Section 33-3805A Idaho Code.
FISCAL NOTE
Funding for construction of the Center will come from private funds which are anticipated to be
$20 to $30 million. When construction is complete and the state assumes ownership, Idaho State
University will request additional General Funds for "new occupancy costs" which involve the
custodial, utility and maintenance costs of operating the facility. These costs are estimated at
$540,000 for FY 2002. Costs for associated academic program activities have not yet been
determined.
