5 AUTHORITY TO FINANCE AND PROVIDE CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS AND RECREATIONAL

19 be reasonable and necessary, for the purpose of financing and providing access
20 improvements and additional recreational facilities for the Lava Hot Springs
21 Foundation.

23 tute prior legislative approval in accordance with Section 67-6410, Idaho
24 Code, with respect to the agreement or agreements and the facilities referred
25 to herein.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 0319
This bill provides the Lava Hot Springs Foundation the authority to seek
financing through the State Building Authority for approximately $400,000 in
safety and recreation improvements for the Olympic Pool at the Lava Hot Springs
facility. The foundation would like to replace the existing ladder for the diving
platform, which is steep and exceedingly dangerous, and also build a hydro-tube
and splash pool facility adjacent to the diving platform. The diving platform and
hydro-tube would both be accessible from the same new stairway/landing access.
Increased admission fees of about three to four dollars, in combination with
anticipated increases in attendance would finance the bond after the facility
improvements are complete with a ten year payback.
Fiscal Note
No General Fund fiscal impact. The $400,000 in safety and recreation
improvements would be paid back with dedicated funds supported by Lava Hot
Springs swimming pool receipts.
