Idaho Code § 67-4606: Acquisition of property.

(1) All lands, buildings, structures, sites or areas acquired by funds appropriated by a county or city shall be acquired in the name of the county or city unless otherwise provided by the governing board. So long as owned by the county or city, historic properties may be maintained by or under the supervision and control of the county or city. However, all lands, buildings or structures acquired by a historic preservation commission from funds other than those appropriated by a county or city may be acquired and held in the name of the historic preservation commission, the county or municipality, or both.

(2) Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to allow the designation, regulation, conditioning, restriction or acquisition of historic buildings, structures, sites or areas, or other properties or facilities owned by the state or any of its political subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities.
