Committee introduces three resolutions on land bank timing, grizzly management and a muzzleloader hunt
Summary
The House Resources Committee introduced three Resolutions: RS32078 (extend timing options for Land Board funds in the land bank), RS32114 (request to petition federal delisting of grizzly bears and review the Endangered Species Act), and RS32146 (make Sabbath muzzleloader‑only hunt legal). All three were introduced by voice vote.
The committee introduced three short legislative requests (RS) by voice vote during the meeting.
RS32078 (Representative Julie Rubel): The resolution would give the State Land Board expanded timing options for proceeds in the land bank before funds automatically revert to the permanent endowment. Representative Rubel said the change would extend the land board’s ability to identify and acquire replacement endowment lands rather than forcing a rollover. Vice Chairman Shepherd moved introduction; the committee approved by voice vote.
RS32114 (Representative Gerald Raymond): Representative Raymond said the resolution urges the federal administration to delist grizzly bears in Idaho and return primary management to the state; it also calls for a broader review of the Endangered Species Act. Representative Shepherd moved introduction; the committee approved by voice vote.
RS32146 (Representative Ron Mendy): Representative Mendy presented a pared‑down request to allow a Sabbath muzzleloader‑only hunt; a member moved introduction and the committee approved by voice vote.
Each RS was introduced for the committee’s consideration and will follow standard drafting and referral procedures. Committee members recorded no roll‑call tallies beyond the voice votes reported as “ayes have it.”
