S 7200 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to vintage snowmobile registrations

This bill establishes special registration fees for snowmobiles manufactured more than 30 years ago in New York. Owners must pay either $125 annually (or $20 if they provide proof of membership in an approved snowmobile club affiliated with the New York State Snowmobile Association). The reduced $20 fee applies to members of clubs that maintain trails or are part of the state association, with the association helping individuals secure membership if needed. The bill also adds a $5 fee for vintage snowmobile registrations and requires a distinct "vintage" date tag for these vehicles. It directly affects owners of older snowmobiles seeking registration or renewal.
