S 1391 Idaho Senate · 68th Legislature, 2nd Regular Session (2026)

PROPERTY – Amends Senate Bill No. 1326 to provide for scope and applicability.

This bill amends an existing property law to clarify what government activities are not restricted by the original legislation. It directly affects government agents, landowners, and water management officials by specifying exceptions where officials can access private property. The key provisions list nine specific situations where government entry or observation remains allowed, including investigations from public areas, serving legal documents, water rights administration, and weed control. The bill also explicitly states that the law does not change protections for homes and their surrounding areas.
