History
The Idaho Legislature created the State Highway Commission Шаблон:Years or months ago in 1913. The group consisted of the Secretary of State, the State Engineer and three other members to be appointed by the governor. The Commission was empowered to:
- plan, build and maintain new state highways
- alter, improve or discontinue any state highway
- purchase, condemn, or otherwise obtain necessary easements
- have general supervision of all highways within the state
- expend the fund created for the construction, maintenance and improvement of state highways
- maintain and improve state highways
- make and enforce rules
- employ a Chief Engineer and assistants
- supervise registration of vehicles
- keep a complete record of all activities and expenses[2]
In 1919, the Commission was abolished and its functions were transferred to a Bureau of Highways in the Department of Public Works.[2] A property tax was enacted by the Legislature to fund roads for the state and bonds were issued to build a highway system.
In 1950, the Idaho Department of Highways was reorganized and placed under the direction of a governing Board. In 1974, the Idaho Department of Highways became the Idaho Transportation Department. The Department of Motor Vehicles originally reported to the Idaho Department of Law Enforcement, but was transferred to ITD in 1982.
