Idaho is considering RS26114 | HB 536 that will set trespass fees:
- $50 to $500
- increased fees for intentional trespass
- a 3rd offense would be a felony
The bill’s author, a rancher, said of current trespass laws:
- the laws are a patchwork
- the orange markings property owners are required to put up every 660 feet are onerous
- recreational trespass penalties are higher than criminal trespass penalties
in addition to streamlining penaltiesalso requires:
- property owners to mark property at property boundaries, access points and streams.
