Committee forwards bill adding small-scale livestock definition to code
Summary
The committee sent Senate Bill 1063, a narrowly focused bill that adds a definition for "small-scale livestock," to the Senate floor with a do-pass recommendation.
The Idaho Senate Agricultural Affairs Committee advanced Senate Bill 1063 to the Senate floor with a do-pass recommendation. The bill, sponsored in committee by Senator Tammy Nichols, would insert a definition for “small-scale livestock” into the referenced section of state code.
Senator Tammy Nichols, R‑District 10, introduced the bill as a single-purpose measure to add the definition requested by Senator Lakey; Nichols described it as “very, very simple” and said the change implements a recommendation from Senator Lakey. The committee did not receive extended testimony or opposition during the brief presentation, and Senator Blaylock moved to send the bill to the floor with a do-pass recommendation; the motion carried by voice vote.
Because the bill only adds a definition, the committee’s discussion was short and no substantive policy changes or fiscal impacts were debated on the record. The committee record shows the bill advanced to the full Senate for subsequent consideration.
