AI Summary

  • Modifies Section 67-7434 of Idaho Code to change lottery dividend transfers from a single annual transfer on July 1 to periodic transfers made at least once annually but not more than five (5) times per year as determined by the commission.

  • Establishes a temporary distribution formula beginning July 1, 2009 allocating lottery net income as: 3/8 to permanent building account, 3/8 to school district building account, and 1/4 to bond levy equalization fund, with unpaid balances transferred by September 30 of the following fiscal year.

  • Requires minimum distributions to permanent building and school district building accounts equal to fiscal year 2008 levels if funds are available; if funds fall below fiscal year 2008 levels, splits available funds equally between the two accounts.

  • Directs that any adjustments needed to meet minimum distribution requirements be deducted from the bond levy equalization fund transfer, with that fund receiving only the remainder if any.

  • Sunsets the temporary distribution formula on September 30, 2014, returning to the standard distribution method outlined in subsection (1).
