33-601A. Leasing of goods, equipment, buses and portable classrooms. No provision of chapter 6, title 33, or chapter 28, title 67, Idaho Code, shall be construed to prevent a board of trustees from entering into lease-purchase agreements for goods, equipment, buses or portable classrooms, provided the agreement is in writing and meets all of the following requirements:
(1) The annual lease payments shall reflect reasonable compensation for use;
(2) No penalty shall be imposed on the school district for proper cancellation of the lease;
(3) The right to exercise the option to purchase shall be at the sole discretion of the school district; and
(4) The cost of purchase shall not exceed the reasonable value of the goods, equipment, buses or portable classrooms as of the time the option to purchase is exercised.
