Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact

                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE



                             RS 13700



The repealing of Sec. 62-307 will give counties the same ability to
negotiate with railroads as the cities have. It also removed a
needless obligation of the Idaho Transportation Dept. to be in the
middle between counties and railroads.




                           FISCAL IMPACT



No Fiscal Impact.
