There may be some
minor reduction of workload associated with the minimal number of cases that
will no longer be filed in the court system. Reductions in the collection of
fines will decrease General Fund or other dedicated revenue by minor amounts. |

| Fiscal Detail
and Notes |

|
|
|
The Department of
the Secretary of State will require Highway Fund allocations of $231,498 in
fiscal year 2025-26 and $214,196 in fiscal year 2026-27 for one Motor Vehicle
Detective and related costs to enforce regulations related to motor vehicle
inspections. Highway Fund revenue would be reduced by $3,112,500 beginning in
2025-26 as a result of only doing motor vehicle inspections on commercial
motor vehicles, trailers and semitrailers. |
|
The Department of
Environmental Protection has indicated that eliminating certain inspection
requirements could result in the loss of federal funding. |
