Article VII |
The Executive proposes to increase the snowmobile registration fee to $45 for both State and non-State residents. Current snowmobile fees are $25 for State residents and $35 for non-State residents. Of that fee, $20 and $30 respectively, are dedicated to the Snowmobile Trail Development and Maintenance Fund. The remaining $5 is deposited into the General Fund. |
This proposal would increase the base fee to be deposited to the Snowmobile Maintenance and Development Fund to $35, and increase the amount to be deposited to General Fund to $10. The Executive projects $3,700,000 in additional annual revenue from the fee increase. Snowmobile fees were last increased in SFY 2002-03. |
