Bill Summary

This bill clarifies that agencies of political subdivisions within the state may receive a waiver of filing deadlines for just cause without being subject to the associated fee, and limits such waivers to once every 3 years per requester.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the rules for requesting late refunds for road tolls by changing the existing law to allow any entity, not just political subdivisions, to apply for a waiver of filing deadlines. When a waiver is granted to an entity other than a political subdivision, a fee will be assessed that is either 5% of the refund amount or $50, whichever is larger. Importantly, political subdivisions within the state will be exempt from paying this fee. The bill also limits waivers so that no particular requester can receive more than one waiver every three years. The Department of Safety estimates it will cost $13,800 in fiscal year 2027 to modify their systems to implement these changes. The bill will take effect 30 days after passage and is not expected to have a predictable impact on state revenue, as the number of potential waiver requests cannot be determined in advance.
