This bill amends the existing law regarding the annual fees that towns can charge for the operation of motor vehicle race tracks. Specifically, it increases the maximum allowable fee from $100 to $500. The new legal language inserted into the law reflects this change, stating that towns may fix fees not to exceed $500 annually for the operation of such race tracks, while the previous limit of $100 is removed. The bill also outlines that towns have the authority to create bylaws for the regulation and licensing of motor vehicle race tracks, and it establishes that failure to comply with these bylaws will result in a violation. Any fines collected from these violations will be directed to uses determined by the towns. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, and the fiscal impact is estimated to be less than $10,000 for each fiscal year from 2025 to 2028.
