Amends existing law to clarify the sequence of appointments to the commission.

Section 33-5213, Idaho Code establishes the Public Charter School Commission including provisions regarding appointment to the commission and terms for said appointments. The proposed legislation would provide clarifying language regarding the terms of appointment and the rotation for the appointment of members. Originally, all members were appointed by the Governor. In 2013, appointments were changed so that they are made by the Governor, Speaker of the House, and the President Pro Tempore of the Senate. The rotation of these appointments resulted in three members in a row being appointed by the Governor, until all positions appointed prior to 2013 have been reappointed or new members have been appointed. Following this schedule each member is then reappointed by the same appointing authority that originally appointed them. This process has caused some confusion and the Board has been asked to amend the section to clarify the order of appointments.
