SB 105-FN-A - FISCAL NOTE

AN ACT relative to permit fees for certain vehicles.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Department of Transportation states this bill will increase state highway fund revenue by $240,582 in FY 2010, $247,800 in FY 2011, $255,234 in FY 2012, and $262,891 in FY 2013. This bill will have no fiscal impact on county and local revenues or state, county and local expenditures.

METHODOLOGY:

The Department of Transportation states this bill increases certain permit fees collected by the Department for over-length, over-width, and over-height vehicles and loads. The Department states the proposed fee structure applied to the actual and projected revenue from permits issued in calendar year 2008 would have generated $233,575 additional state highway fund revenue. Assuming a 3% annual increase in the number of permits issued each year the Department states this bill may increase state highway fund revenue by $240,582 in FY 2010, $247,800 in FY 2011, $255,234 in FY 2012, and $262,891 in FY 2013.
