Bill > SB46

This bill modifies how boat registration and replacement fees are deposited into state funds in South Dakota. Currently, boat registration fees collected when a new boat owner registers a vessel are deposited into the parks and recreation fund. Fees for replacing lost or updated boat registration and validation decals are currently deposited into the state motor vehicle fund. The bill changes the default provision that all revenues from boat-related transactions will now be deposited into the state general fund, instead of being allocated to specific funds like parks and recreation or motor vehicle funds. This means that boat registration and replacement fees will now contribute to the state's general budget, which is used to fund various state government operations and services. The bill does not change the actual amount of fees, only the destination of those collected fees within the state's financial system.
