Idaho H0603 amends camping regulations and property disposition rules on state-owned properties.

Idaho H0603 amends existing law to prohibit camping on state-owned or leased properties, except in designated recreational areas. It defines camping as using state property for temporary or permanent dwelling, lodging, or living accommodation. The bill allows temporary canopies for rain or snow protection, provided they do not serve as sleeping or camping shelters. It also revises the disposition of unclaimed property, requiring it to be held for 90 days before being deemed abandoned. The bill declares an emergency, making it effective immediately upon passage and approval.
