IdahoState repeals a separate rule for administrative facilities
The act repeals a rule for disposing of state administrative facilities but leaves references to that rule in related property provisions.
What it does
The act repeals a state rule covering the disposal of administrative facilities. Other quoted provisions still refer to that repealed section.
The state board of examiners is directed to authorize disposal of surplus administrative facilities and personal property, subject to the listed statutes, exclusions, and board policies.
Argument forRepealing a separate facilities rule could reduce overlap in how state agencies handle surplus property, although remaining cross-references may limit that effect.
Argument againstKeeping references to the repealed section could make it harder for agencies and the board to determine which disposal rules apply.
More detail
The act repeals Section 67-5709A of the Idaho Code. The repeal concerns state administrative facilities and their sale, transfer, or other disposal. The supplied amendments still refer to Section 67-5709A. Section 58-331 still says surplus property is handled except as provided in Section 67-5709A. Section 67-2024A still directs the state board of examiners to authorize disposal of administrative facilities in accordance with Section 67-5709A. The act takes effect when passed and approved because it declares an emergency; the status information lists an effective date of April 10, 2026.
The state board of examiners shall authorize disposal of specified surplus property. The provision covers surplus real property classified as state administrative facilities and surplus personal property. Administrative facilities are to be disposed of in accordance with Section 67-5709A, even though the act separately repeals that section. The provision excludes real property covered by Section 58-331. Surplus personal property must be handled under Section 67-5732A and the board's internal management policies and procedures. This provision takes effect when the act is passed and approved because the act declares an emergency.
