I'll start this one where I left off last week. The bills being considered cover such a variety of subjects and problems that discussing them in numerical order seems the simplest way to mention them. House Bill 2058 is a bill we passed that is important Io our economy. This would allow the state to sell bonds for low-income housing. I opposed this bill because it included a section I didn't like. The state would not be required to use the rent, fees or charges collected to pay oft the principal and interest on the bonds. The money could be spent for something other than what it should be spent for, and It becomes an obligation against the state and the debt would have to be paid off by tases of some kind on the public. Also I though the state shouldn't be getting into the housing business. Another bill I voted against is HB 2061. concerning land lord-tenant legislation. I did not like the regulations binding on the landlord. HB 2430 would allow municipalities to be esempt from the state building code, if the Department of Com merce agrees. The bill failed on the first vote but was reconsidered and sent back to committee. I thought it was a good bill—it would have given the cities the right to set up their own codes—did not allow the Department of Commerce the right to refuse a permit but gives the cities the right to enact stiffer codes if they decided on this. HB 2552. which revises the homeowner and renter relief law, was referred to the Ways and Mean Committee for further work. Many of the legislators are in favor of discontinuing this as a means of funding other programs. HB 2579. the bill that deals with criminal records and the availability, or access, to the records by the general public, turned into almost a parliamentary donnybrook. This is a very controversial issue. First the minority report of the committee passed - then this was recon sidered and the majority report, or committee report, was adopted and the bill passed. This makes criminal histories private escept to designated law-enforcement officers—criminal histories cannot be disclosed to just anyone. I can't predict what will happen to this bill in the Senate. The budget for the Depart ment of Environmental Qua lity. HB 5069. just barely received the 31 votes that is needed to pass a bill. I voted against this budget, as you can note many others did. The opposition was due to the general arrogance in deci sion-making by this Depart ment and high handed atti tude. Also their inefficiency came in for criticism, parti cularly by the Chairman of the Ways and Means Com mittee. He blasted this Department for failing to live within their budget —there was a deficit from the last biennium appropriation whi ch had to be added to the budgeted amount for this coming biennium. The W A M Chairman said the Depart ment's lack of cooperation and indifference to its bud geted funds would not be tolerated A member of one of the Ways and Means sub-commit tees will close up shop by May 16. It usually takes ten days to two weeks to wind up the session after the Ways A Means Committee have fi nished, so hopefully the legislature will end by the end of Mav or first of June Businessman of Year Milan Ryder, veteran auto dealer of Weiser, Idaho, has been named Idaho Small Businessman of the Year. Bill Grange, Chairman of the Idaho Advisory Council to the Small Business Administra tion announced. Ryder received the citation in a special small business recognition banquet in Wei ser. Wednesday evening. May 7. co-sponsored by the Lions Club and the Chamber of Commerce. "From a tiny beginning in Weiser in 1946. Ryder has parlayed his sales and technical skills," Grange related, "into one of the most successful small auto dealer ships in America." "Not only does his venture attract customers from a multi-county trading area." Grange adds, "but outstan ding abilities have fxn recognized by his peers of the industry who. through the National Auto Dealers As sociation awarded him a coveted Quality Dealer A- ward in 1975. one of 12 such dealers in America so ho nored." Today, the Ryder firm has 25 employees, and offers retail sales of Ford automo biles and trucks, and also a complete service operation, including body repairs. "Ry der." Grange adds, “has built his business on a solid foundation of a dollar's worth of value for the dollars his customers spend, and backs this assurance with a com- Ryder has been both pioneer and leader in indus try associations. He was President. Idaho Auto Dea lers Association. 196566. President. Washington Cou nty Auto Dealers, I960; and an organizer of the Treasure Valley Association in 1970. He received a Gold Medallion Award for dealer cue Hence in 1973.
