Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

If it appears from an investigation that
the revenue from the assessment levied hereunder is inadequate to accomplish
the purposes of this chapter, the commission shall file with the director of
the department of agriculture a report showing the necessity of the industry,
extent and probable cost of the required research, market promotion and
advertising, extent of public convenience, interest and necessity, and
probable revenue from the assessment desired to be levied. It shall thereupon
increase the assessment to a sum not to exceed ten cents (10¢) per forty (40)
pounds shipped in bulk, container or any style of package; but no increase
shall be made prior to filing of said report and finding. Provided, however,
that no increase in such assessment shall become effective unless the same
shall first be referred by the commission on a referendum mail ballot of the
apple growers of this state, and be approved by two-thirds (2/3) vote of the
growers of fifty per cent (50%) or more of the acreage represented in the
voting.
