Maine LD1809 aims to stabilize Highway Fund revenue by imposing new fees on noncommercial vehicles, electric vehicles, and deliveries.

Maine LD1809 introduces several new fees to bolster the Highway Fund. It imposes a $1 surcharge on noncommercial passenger vehicles using the Maine Turnpike that are not registered in the state. Additionally, it mandates an annual registration fee of $200 for battery electric vehicles and $100 for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. The bill also requires a delivery fee for sales of at least $100 of tangible personal property subject to sales tax. All revenue from these fees must be deposited into the Highway Fund.
