STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS27798 / S1372
Currently, Idaho Code provide opportunities for the creation and organization of fire districts. It further allows
for consolidation, dissolution, inclusion, annexation, and withdrawal as changing conditions and growth
patterns might dictate. The purpose of this legislation is to provide an additional option for a fire district to be
split.
FISCAL NOTE
There would be no impact to the state general fund. In the event a local fire district were to split, there could be
a positive or negative fiscal impact that would be dependent on a case by case basis, and impossible to quantify.
