    31-864.  HISTORICAL SOCIETIES AND MUSEUMS -- SUPPORT BY COUNTY. (1) The
board of county commissioners of any county may expend annually such amounts
as necessary for the support of county or local historical societies which are
incorporated as Idaho nonprofit corporations and which operate primarily
within the county, or for the support of museums or of historical restoration
projects within the county undertaken or operated by Idaho nonprofit
organizations, or for the marking and development of historic sites by Idaho
nonprofit corporations. For the purposes of this section, the board of county
commissioners of any county is authorized and empowered to levy not more than
twelve one-thousandths percent (.012%) on each dollar of market value for
assessment purposes of taxable property within the county.
    (2)  Before money is granted under this section, the directors of such
nonprofit corporations shall present to the county commissioners a proposed
budget which shall indicate anticipated revenues and expenditures of the
nonprofit corporation (including the sums requested from the county), and
shall indicate the purposes of the proposed expenditures.  The board of county
commissioners may require an audit of the accounts and financial records of
any such nonprofit corporations receiving county funds.
