(2) A public entity in this state may not enter into a contract with a company to acquire or dispose of services, supplies, information technology, or construction unless the contract includes a written certification that the company is not currently engaged in, and will not for the duration of the contract engage in, a boycott of goods or services from Israel or territories under its control. The provisions of this section shall not apply to contracts with a total potential value of less than one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) or to contractors with fewer than ten (10) employees.

The legislature finds that advances in information technology and telecommunications present significant opportunities for the state of Idaho to improve the efficiency and productivity of state government, to encourage public access to government information and to enhance lifelong educational and training opportunities. The implications of these information technology and telecommunications advances require a centralized and coordinated strategic planning process involving the expertise and participation of experienced persons from both state government and the private sector. The establishment of the Idaho technology authority will facilitate a centralized approach to the acquisition and evaluation of necessary technical information and the informed development of a statewide strategic plan to ensure a coordinated approach to the design, procurement and implementation of information technology and telecommunications systems for both state government and the public.

(ii) the provision of the additional housing for persons of low-income needed to remedy the shortage of adequate housing in this state and eliminate the existence of a large number of substandard dwellings;

(iii) the restriction of the financial return and benefit to that necessary to protect against the realization by mortgage lenders of an excessive financial return or benefit as determined by prevailing market conditions; and

(iv) standards as to the number of dwelling units and housing projects and other characteristics of dwelling units for persons of low-income and housing projects to be financed by mortgage loans.

(b) The ratio of loan to total housing project cost and the amortization period of loans made under this act which are insured by the federal housing administration (FHA) shall be governed by the FHA mortgage insurance commitment for each housing project; but in no event shall such amortization period exceed fifty (50) years. In the case of a mortgage loan not insured by FHA the amount of the loan to:

(e) The association shall purchase mortgage loans at a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal balance; provided, however, that discount from the principal balance or the payment of a premium may be employed to effect a fair rate of return, as determined by the association, in its discretion, based upon the rate of interest payable by the association on its obligations issued to purchase such mortgages, its administrative expenses, and market conditions and any other relevant factors existing at the time of purchase.

(f) Each mortgage loan to a housing sponsor for a newly constructed rental housing project shall be evidenced by a mortgage or deed of trust, note or bond and by a mortgage or deed of trust which shall be a lien on the housing project and on all of the real property constituting the site of or relating to such housing project and which shall contain such terms and provisions and be in a form approved by the association.

(g) Each mortgage loan shall be subject to an agreement between the association and the housing sponsor which will subject said sponsor and its principals or stockholders to limitations established by the association as to rentals and other charges, builders' and developers' profits and fees, and the disposition of its property and on all of the real property constituting the site of or relating to such housing project.

(h) The association shall require as a condition of each loan to a mortgage lender, and (except for mortgage loans to persons of low-income or for housing projects for persons of low-income and/or for mixed income housing projects which were made by a mortgage lender pursuant to a preexisting commitment with the association to purchase such mortgage loans) as a condition of the purchase or the making of a commitment to purchase mortgage loans from a mortgage lender, that such mortgage lender shall following the receipt of the loan proceeds or sale proceeds have entered into written commitments with the association to make, and shall thereafter proceed as promptly as practicable to make and disburse from such loan proceeds, mortgage loans to persons of low-income or mortgage loans for housing projects or to purchase obligations of the association in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of such prior loan; and the association shall not purchase nor make commitment to purchase such mortgage loans or obligations from a mortgage lender from which it has previously purchased such mortgage loans nor make a loan to a mortgage lender to which it has previously made a loan unless said mortgage lender has either restored or made commitments to restore to its portfolio of mortgage loans in this state, mortgage loans to provide residential housing for persons of low-income from the date thereof or has added to or made commitments to add to its portfolio of association obligations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the proceeds of prior sale to said mortgage lender.

(i) To assure repayment loans from the association to mortgage lenders, the association shall require that loans made to mortgage lenders shall be secured as to payment of both principal and interest by a pledge of and lien upon collateral security, including without limitation direct obligations of, or obligations (including, without limitation, mortgages) guaranteed or insured as to payment of principal and interest by, the federal government or this state.

(a) A rule requiring the administrator, after consulting with each department, to develop, adopt, and make effective a job classification system for positions covered by this chapter, based on an analysis of the duties and responsibilities of the positions. The job classification shall include an appropriate title for each class and a description of duties and responsibilities of positions in the classes and the requirements of minimum training, skills, capabilities, work, or relevant experience and other qualifications suitable for the performance of duties of the position. Except for job classifications legally required to possess a professional license or credential or postsecondary degree, as determined by the administrator, no job classification may require a postsecondary degree unless the job description describes the necessity. Applicants may demonstrate qualifications or equivalency to any substantiated postsecondary degree requirements using relevant and comparable work or volunteer experience, education, skills, capabilities, expertise, or nondegree credentials, including but not limited to skill-based certificates, badges, or professional certifications.

(b) A rule describing the relevant labor markets and benchmark job classifications used in the administrator's salary surveys.

(c) A rule requiring that all classes of positions that are common to the departments concerned shall have the same titles, minimum requirements and compensation ranges.

(f) A rule requiring fair and impartial selection of appointees to all positions, other than those defined as nonclassified in this chapter, on the basis of open competitive merit examinations or evaluations. An application for an examination will be accepted after the closing date of the examination from a person who was serving in the armed forces or undergoing service-connected hospitalization up to one (1) year following discharge. The application must be submitted within one hundred twenty (120) days of separation from the armed forces or hospitalization and prior to the expiration of the register established as a result of the examination. A disabled veteran may file an application at any time up until a selection has been made for any position for which the division maintains a register as a source for future job openings or for which a register is about to be established, provided he or she has not already been examined twice for the same position and grade for which application is made, does not have current eligibility on that register, or is not serving in a competitive position in the same grade for which application is made. Examinations may be assembled or unassembled and may include various examining techniques such as rating of training and experience, written tests, oral interviews, recognition of professional licensing, performance tests, investigations and any other measure of ability to perform the duties of the position. Examinations shall be scored objectively. Five (5) points shall be added to the earned rating of any veteran as defined in section 65-203, Idaho Code, and the widow or widower of any veteran as defined in section 65-203, Idaho Code, as long as he or she remains unmarried. Pursuant to section 65-504, Idaho Code, ten (10) points shall be added to the earned rating of any disabled veteran as defined in section 65-502, Idaho Code, the widow or widower of any disabled veteran as long as he or she remains unmarried, or the spouse of any eligible disabled veteran who cannot qualify for any public employment because of a service-connected disability. Employment registers shall be established in order of final score, except that the names of all five (5) and ten (10) point preference eligibles resulting from any merit system or civil service examination shall be placed on the register in accordance with their augmented rating. Selective certification shall be permitted when justified by the hiring department, under rules to be made by the division defining adequate justification based on the duties and requirements of the positions. Such examinations need not be held until after the rules have been adopted, the service classified, and a pay plan established, but they shall be held within one (1) year after departments commence participation in the personnel system.

(g) A rule that, whenever practicable, a vacancy in a classified position shall be filled by the promotion of a qualified employee of the agency in which the vacancy occurs. An interagency promotion shall be made through competitive examination and all qualified state employees shall have the opportunity to compete for such promotions. If an employee's name appears within certifiable range on a current register for a higher class of position, he shall be eligible for a transfer and promotion.

(h) A rule for development and maintenance of a system of service ratings and the use of such ratings by all departments in connection with promotions, demotions, retentions, separations and reassignments. The rule shall require that an evaluation of each classified employee shall be made after each two-thousand-eighty (2,080) hour period of credited state service and that a copy of the evaluation shall be filed with the division.

(i) A rule prohibiting disqualification of any person from taking an examination, from appointment to a position, from promotion, or from holding a position because of race or national origin, color, sex, age, political or religious opinions or affiliations and providing for right of appeal.

(j) A rule establishing a probation period not to exceed one thousand forty (1,040) hours of credited state service for all classified appointments and promotions, except that peace officers as defined in section 19-5101, Idaho Code, shall be subject to a probation period of two thousand eighty (2,080) hours of credited state service, and for the appointing authority to provide the employee and the administrator a performance evaluation indicating satisfactory or unsatisfactory performance. The employee shall be deemed to have satisfactorily completed the probation unless, prior to one thousand forty (1,040) hours, or two thousand eighty (2,080) hours for peace officers, the appointing authority receives approval from the administrator to extend the probationary period for good cause for an additional specified period not to exceed one thousand forty (1,040) hours of credited state service. If an employee is performing in an unsatisfactory manner during the entrance probationary period, the appointing authority shall ask the employee to resign and, if no resignation is submitted, shall terminate the employment of such employee without the right of grievance or appeal.

(k) A rule concerning temporary appointments.

(l) A rule governing the employment of consultants and persons retained under independent contract.

(m) A rule for the disciplinary dismissal, demotion, suspension or other discipline of classified employees only for cause, with reasons given in writing. Such rule shall provide that any of the following reasons shall be proper cause for the disciplinary dismissal, demotion or suspension of any employee in the state classified service:

1. Failure to perform the duties and carry out the obligations imposed by the state constitution, state statutes and rules of the employee's department, or rules of the administrator or the division.
