Amending and Repealing certain transportation-related taxes

This bill amends Minnesota's vehicle registration tax rates by adjusting annual percentage calculations based on vehicle age (e.g., 100% in first year, decreasing to 10% in tenth year) and setting a $25 flat rate after 10 years. It also modifies gasoline excise taxes to tie annual rate adjustments to the Minnesota Highway Construction Cost Index, capping increases at 3% starting in 2025. The bill repeals two outdated tax provisions (sections 297A.9915 and 473.4465) and updates special fuel tax rates for propane, LNG, and natural gas. These changes directly affect vehicle owners (through registration fees) and fuel consumers (through gas and special fuel taxes), with effective dates beginning in 2025.
