Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council

History

The Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council was established in 1961 when an ongoing revenue source was created. Its five (5) members are appointed by the Governor with fixed terms, and they serve at the pleasure of the Governor. The Council is comprised of one (1) member of the Senate, one (1) member of the House of Representatives, a citizen engaged in the contracting business, a citizen engaged in the banking business, and a citizen who is a member of the business community not engaged in contracting or banking. The Senate member and House of Representatives member are appointed for a fixed term of two (2) years. All other Council members are appointed for a fixed term of three (3) years.

The Council members receive no compensation other than per diem and travel expenses. The Council generally meets on a monthly basis; however, meeting frequency is determined by workload and is not a statutory requirement.

The Council meets in Boise during the majority of the year. However, it meets once a year in northern Idaho and once a year in southeastern Idaho. At the northern and southeastern Idaho meetings, the Council visits various construction projects and discusses future needs and funding requests with state agencies. During one of the spring meetings in Boise, the Council tours current and potential construction sites and meets with state agency representatives located in southwest Idaho regarding their needs.

Meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month, except November which meets on the first Thursday, unless there is a conflict with a holiday. Locations and times are subject to change.
