Fiscal Detail and Notes
This bill makes changes in ATV registration fees.  These proposed changes are in conflict with ATV registration fees which are authorized by Part III of PL 2005, c. 12 which takes effect on June 30, 2005.  The fiscal impact discussed in this fiscal note is relative to the changes made in PL 2005, c. 12.
 The changes in ATV registration fees will result in the loss of $188,438 and $251,250 in General Fund revenue collected by the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife in fiscal years 2005-06 and 2006-07, respectively and an increase of $36,563 and $48,750 in Other Special Revenue Funds revenue collected by the Department of Conservation during the same fiscal years.  In addition,  the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife will require a one-time general fund appropriation of $55,000 in fiscal year 2005-06 for certain sticker and computer reprogramming costs.
