Bill > LB207

This bill modifies the registration fees for alternative fuel vehicles in Nebraska by establishing a tiered fee structure. Specifically, the bill introduces different registration fees based on vehicle type and weight: motorcycles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles will be charged a reduced fee of $75, commercially registered alternative fuel vehicles weighing over 7,500 pounds will be charged three times the standard alternative fuel vehicle fee, and all other alternative fuel vehicles will be charged $150. The fees will continue to be collected by county treasurers and remitted to the State Treasurer for credit to the Highway Trust Fund. The changes aim to create a more nuanced approach to alternative fuel vehicle registration fees, potentially reflecting the different environmental and infrastructure impacts of various types of alternative fuel vehicles. By establishing different fee levels, the bill suggests a more sophisticated method of accounting for the varying characteristics of alternative fuel vehicles in the state's motor vehicle registration system.
