Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The stated purpose of this bill is to exempt from the sales tax all-terrain vehicles and utility terrain vehicles used as farm equipment. The passage of this bill would add an additional exemption to the 6 percent Motor Vehicle Sales Tax. The exemption would only apply to all-terrain vehicles and utility terrain vehicles which receive a farm-use exemption certificate under W.Va. Code 17A-3-2. Per our interpretation, passage of this bill would have a minimal impact on State Road Fund Revenues. There will be no additional administrative costs incurred by the State Tax Department. However, there may be additional administrative costs incurred by the Division of Motor Vehicles.
