ID H0583

Amends Section 40-102 of Idaho Code to define "access easement" (also called "deeded access") as a property right for vehicular ingress and egress from private property to public highways or rights-of-way created by written document between the state or political subdivision and a landowner.

Specifies that if an easement does not specify the type of use permitted (such as farm access or heavy industrial), the easement is not limited to any particular type of access.

Establishes that if a governmental entity with road jurisdiction denies a property owner the right to use a deeded access easement, such denial constitutes a taking of the access right for which just compensation shall be owed.

Declares an emergency, making the act effective upon passage and approval.
