Senate Bill 1449, sponsored by Walley, proposes the repeal of Chapter 75 of the Private Acts of 2004, which pertains to the Wayne County wheel tax. The bill aims to eliminate the existing legal framework governing this tax, effectively removing any associated regulations or requirements.
The bill stipulates that it will only take effect if approved by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the legislative body of Wayne County. The outcome of this vote will be announced by the presiding officer of the legislative body and certified to the secretary of state. While the bill will become law immediately for the purpose of approval or rejection, it will only be fully effective for other purposes once the local legislative body has voted in favor of it.
