Andrus laments missing elderly renter relief in session
Idaho Governor Cecil D. Andrus criticizes the 48th Legislature for not including elderly renters in the circuit breaker property tax relief, a bill that died late in the session. He cites increased partisanship between the executive and legislative branches and notes the session was productive with land use planning and kindergarten bills, yet he laments the lack of a balanced budget and other missed goals. The Sunshine Law, lobbying registration, and campaign disclosure were implemented, and Andrus comments on the continued authority of the Public Utilities Commission for power plant siting and on the Alcoholic Safety Program’s funding.
