LC 2005 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Repeal process to establish county owned scales

This bill removes the legal framework that allows Montana counties to establish and operate their own public weighing scales. It directly affects county governments and any entities that previously relied on these county-run facilities for weighing goods. The legislation repeals eight specific sections of the Montana Code Annotated that covered the establishment, ownership, design, operation, and regulation of public scales. By eliminating these provisions, the bill ends the state's legal authority for counties to create and manage their own weighing stations.
