Bill > HCR153

This Concurrent Resolution urges the counties in Hawaii to create a payment option that allows state residents to pay their motor vehicle registration taxes and fees in two installments spread throughout the year, rather than all at once. This is intended to help residents, especially those with lower incomes, manage the significant cost of transportation, which is a major household expense, and avoid financial hardship or penalties associated with late payments. The resolution specifically asks the mayors and council chairpersons of each county, along with relevant administrative officials, to develop and implement this pro-rated semiannual payment system.
