Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding compensation and benefits of local boards.
This change to the bill is a technical correction that reflects that members of Regional Public Transportation board members shall not be entitled to receive pay for serving on these boards. Current board members are already being paid through county commissions and city councils. This makes sure that these board members aren’t paid twice.

States finding of the Legislature and recognizes the vital role of cities in Idaho and supports the prioritization of local control.
The Legislature calls on state agencies, the Governor, and municipal governments to collaborate and advance local interests by recognizing that Idaho’s cities are economic and service hubs for the majority of our residents, maintain critical infrastructure and public safety resources, and drive innovative solutions to community-specific challenges; the Legislature further encourages collaboration that respects local decision-making and promotes policies addressing housing, transportation, and public safety while upholding the ability of municipal governments to effectively meet the unique needs of their communities.
