The bill amends Section 31-819 of the Idaho Code, focusing on the publication of proceedings by the board of county commissioners. It mandates that the board must publish a monthly statement detailing its acts and proceedings, including a brief financial summary of expenditures from each county fund. However, counties that maintain a publicly accessible website with meeting agendas and minutes are exempt from this monthly publication requirement. Additionally, the bill stipulates that an annual financial report must be prepared for public inspection, detailing income sources, expenditures, and current fund balances, with a summary published within thirty days of the annual audit.

The bill also includes technical corrections to the existing language, such as changing "To" to "The board of county commissioners shall" and modifying the phrasing around the financial report requirements. An emergency clause is included, declaring that the act will take effect on July 1, 2025.
