The required local
activities in this bill may represent a state mandate pursuant to the
Constitution of Maine. If the bill does require a local unit of government to
expand or modify its activities so as to necessitate additional expenditures
from local revenue, the state mandate provisions of the Constitution of Maine
require either: (1) General Fund appropriations be provided to fund at least
90% of any additional necessitated local costs of the mandate; or (2) a
Mandate Preamble be added to the bill and two-thirds of the members of each
House vote to exempt the mandate from the funding requirement. If the bill
does represent a state mandate and neither one of these actions occurs, the
local units of government will not be required to implement the mandated
activities. |

This bill
establishes surcharges on hybrid and battery-electric motor vehicles. It
includes a one-time Highway Fund allocation of $54,790 in fiscal year 2018-19
to the Department of Secretary of State for computer programming costs and
modifications to vendor systems to implement the surcharges. Highway Fund
revenues would increase by $1,000,000 beginning in fiscal year 2019-20 based
on 19,000 hybrid motor vehicles at $50 and 400 battery-electric motor
vehicles at $125. |
