Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding fees for modular buildings.

Consistent with the Red Tape Reduction Act, this bill seeks to lessen the burden of restrictions. Specifically, this legislation will allow the Division of Building Safety and Factory Built Structures Advisory Board to pass permit fee savings on to modular building manufacturers through a reduction of the permit fees provided in rule. The factory built structures dedicated fund balance has been growing at a greater rate than is necessary to administer the modular building program. This legislation will allow the Division and the Board to curtail the ongoing buildup of funds in the factory built structures dedicated fund while retaining a reserve balance that is sufficient to fund the modular building program in excess of two (2) years. The Division and Board were unable to accomplish the permit fee reduction through rulemaking during the past year because Idaho Code section 39-4303(1)(a) requires modular building permit fees to be "based on the 1997 Uniform Building Code Table 1-A."
