4. Designation by counties and municipalities. County commissioners and municipal officers may designate public ways other than those in subsection 3 and impose restrictions within their respective jurisdictions similar to those made by the Department of Transportation under subsection 3. Any vehicle delivering home heating fuel or organic animal bedding material and operating in accordance with a permit issued by the Department of Transportation pursuant to this section may travel over any county or town way without a specific municipal or county permit. A municipality may impose additional restrictions for home heating fuel delivery trucks a vehicle delivering home heating fuel or organic animal bedding material to operate on public ways within that municipality but may not require a permit to operate according to those restrictions.’

summary

This amendment, which is the minority report, replaces the bill. It changes the title and removes the emergency preamble and emergency clause. The amendment provides that a vehicle delivering organic animal bedding material may travel over a county or town way without a specific municipal or county permit as long as that vehicle is operating in accordance with restrictions imposed by the applicable county or municipality.
