This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 84.922, subdivision 5, to eliminate the all-terrain vehicle registration fee for veterans with a total service-connected disability. The new language specifies that these veterans will be exempt from the standard registration fees and will receive a three-year registration free of charge. To qualify, veterans must provide satisfactory evidence of a 100 percent total and permanent service-connected disability rating from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or the retirement board of one of the armed forces branches.

Additionally, the bill clarifies the existing fee structure for all-terrain vehicle registrations, which includes a $60 fee for public use and a $6 fee for private use, among others. The amendment introduces a new paragraph (d) that specifically addresses the exemption for disabled veterans, while also renumbering the subsequent paragraphs accordingly. This change aims to support veterans by reducing their financial burden related to vehicle registration.
