will not be able to meet in the building and movable items, such as
the vault in the office of the treasurer and furniture, cannot
remain in the building during construction. The legislation makes
changes to Idaho Code to recognize and accommodate the construction
process. This change will involve amending sections in title 67,
chapters 4, 12, and 16.
