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 reflects this change, stating that towns may fix fees not to exceed
$100 $500 annually for the operation of such race tracks. Additionally, the bill maintains the provision that failure to observe the bylaws related to race tracks constitutes a violation, with any fines collected being directed to uses determined by the towns.
The bill is set to take effect 60 days after its passage and is projected to have a fiscal impact of less than $10,000 in each fiscal year from 2025 through 2028. No agencies were contacted regarding this legislation, indicating a straightforward adjustment to the existing fee structure for race track operations in towns.
