BY STATE AFFAIRS COMMITTEE
1 A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
2 STATING FINDINGS OF THE LEGISLATURE AND RECOGNIZING EFFORTS TO CREATE THE
3 GREAT WESTERN TRAIL CORRIDOR.
4 Be It Resolved by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:
5 WHEREAS, the Great Western Trail has currently been designated as a
6 National Millennium Trail by the White House Millennium Council; and
7 WHEREAS, the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service has
8 completed a study on the possibility of designating the trail as a part of the
9 National Trail System; and
10 WHEREAS, further study is continuing on this concept, the appropriate
11 routes, and appropriate governing features; and
12 WHEREAS, recognition of the trail is intended to enhance the opportunities
13 for historical, archaeological, geologic, scenic, industrial and agricultural
14 points of discovery for the site visitor; and
15 WHEREAS, as representatives of the people of the state of Idaho, the Leg-
16 islature wishes to recognize the Great Western Trail Corridor and to support
17 the concept.
18 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the members of the First Regular Session
19 of the Fifty-sixth Idaho Legislature, the House of Representatives and the
20 Senate concurring therein, it is the intent to recognize the efforts of the
21 Great Western Trail Association without in any way impairing private property
22 rights of the citizens.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 11269
The purpose of this legislation is to gain state recognition of
the Great Western Trail as the Idaho segment of a trail extending
from southern Arizona on the south to the Canadian border on the
north. State recognition of this trail is a first and important
step toward gaining national recognition of the Great Western
Trail and the addition of that trail to the National Trail System.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no additional cost to the State of Idaho. The trail
is currently being maintained from state funds received from
snowmobile registration. It is expected that the recognition of
this trail will have a positive impact on the tourism industry in
all of eastern Idaho.
