What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
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 operated on a highway and customarily kept in the county. The ordinance, however, may not require the registration of animal-drawn vehicles that are used solely for recreational purposes or that are implements of husbandry. The bill 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 purposes or for actual administrative costs related to the collection of the registration fee.
