PUBLIC HEALTH DISTRICT BOARDS – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding the composition of public health district boards.

H 241 amends Idaho law to revise the composition and appointment rules for public health district boards. It requires boards in districts with fewer than eight counties to have seven members (each county appointing at least one), while eight-county districts must have eight to nine members. The bill shortens board terms from five to two years, mandates one physician member (if available) confirmed by all county commissioners, and allows county commissions to fill vacancies with another elected county commissioner. Additionally, it clarifies that the state-level board of trustees will manage legislative fund allocation using formulas that must remain unchanged for at least two years unless an emergency triggers a unanimous vote to adjust. The changes take effect July 1, 2025.
