Analysis by the 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.
For further information see the local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
