What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law allows a county, town, village, or city to enact an ordinance to

collect an annual registration fee for motor vehicles that weigh less than 8,000

pounds and are customarily kept in the county, town, village, or city.

This bill allows a county to enact an ordinance requiring registration of, and

imposing an annual flat registration fee not to exceed $100 on, animal-drawn

vehicles that are customarily kept in the county and used primarily for

transportation purposes. The bill also requires a county to pay 50 percent of any such

fee to a town in which the vehicle is customarily kept. The registration fee moneys

may be used only for transportation-related purposes or for actual administrative

costs related to the collection of the registration fee.
