Bill > S03045

This bill amends the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law to remove the metropolitan commuter transportation district (MCTD) supplemental registration fee for farm vehicles. The MCTD is a special transportation district in the New York City metropolitan area that previously required most vehicle owners to pay an additional registration fee when registering or renewing their vehicle registration. Under this new legislation, farm vehicles registered under subdivision thirteen of section four hundred one of the vehicle and traffic law will be explicitly exempted from paying this supplemental fee. The bill makes technical changes to two sections of law, updating language (such as changing "his or her" to "their") and adding specific language to clarify that farm vehicle owners will not be charged the MCTD supplemental registration fee. The changes are designed to provide financial relief to farmers by reducing their vehicle registration costs, and the bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law.
