Broadband equipment tax exemption
PROPERTY TAXES – Adds to existing law to exempt certain broadband equipment from property taxes.

RS30407 / H0178

The state has identified broadband as a critical need for the rural parts of our state. The Idaho Broadband Strategic Plan set a goal to connect 100% of Idaho’s businesses and homes to high-speed broadband by 2027. Meeting that goal will require a massive investment of federal and state dollars to deploy broadband, and that deployment needs to be as efficient as possible. This bill amends chapter 6, Title 63, Idaho Code by exempting from property tax equipment and infrastructure used in deployment of high-speed broadband.
