What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, the owner of a snowmobile that has a model year of 1966 or earlier may register the snowmobile with the Department of Natural Resources as an antique snowmobile. Registration of a snowmobile as an antique snowmobile entitles the owner to registration decals of a distinctive nature and exempts the owner from having to reregister the snowmobile during the time that he or she owns it.

Under this bill, the owner of a snowmobile that is at least 30 years old at the time that the owner applies for registration may register the snowmobile as an antique snowmobile.
