Motor Vehicle Fee Cuts Await Scott’s Signature

March 27, 2014

The largest portion of Gov. Rick Scott’s proposed $500 million in tax and fee cuts is on the way to Scott’s signature.

The House and Senate formally sent a reduction in vehicle registration fees (SB 156) to Scott’s office Wednesday, giving him a week to sign or veto the bill. Scott is certain to sign the measure, which he has touted for months.

The bill, which takes effect September 1, would reduce the fees by a total of $309 million in the budget year that begins July 1 and $395 million the following year. The savings for each vehicle will vary by type, but many motorists will see the fees drop by $20 to $25.
