The bill amends Section 50-3101 of the Idaho Code to revise the provisions regarding the formation of community infrastructure districts. It clarifies that such districts can only be formed by a city within its incorporated area, or by a county either with the city's consent within the city's comprehensive plan or outside of it. Additionally, the bill emphasizes that the formation of a community infrastructure district requires prior review and approval from the governing bodies of the relevant counties or cities, as well as necessary site development approvals. The bill also states that the establishment of a district does not impede the powers of local governments or the applicability of local planning and zoning ordinances.

Furthermore, the bill introduces technical corrections and allows for the citation of this chapter as the "Community Infrastructure District Act." An emergency clause is included, declaring that the act will take effect on July 1, 2025. The revisions aim to streamline the process for funding and constructing regional community infrastructure in anticipation of developmental growth while ensuring compliance with local governance and planning regulations.
