2004 House Bill 6100

Impose 50-cent tire sale fee

Introduced in the House

Aug. 4, 2004

Introduced by Rep. Frank Accavitti (D-42)

To impose a 50-cent fee on the sale of all new tires, direct the fee revenue into an existing state scrap tire cleanup and collection fund, and require tire dealers to accept used tires at no charge when they sell new ones. Under current law, the scrap tire fund gets money from a $1.50 surcharge tacked on to vehicle title fees.

Referred to the Committee on Land Use and Environment
