A bill (H.B. 4068) has been introduced in the West Virginia State Legislature to provide owners of antique motor vehicles with a cap on property taxes paid on antique motor vehicles. The bill will be considered in the House Roads and Transportation Committee on Wednesday, January 25, 2012.
- West Virginia law defines an "Antique motor vehicle" to mean any motor vehicle which is more than twenty-five years old and is owned solely as a collector's item.
- H.B. 4068 would assess antique motor vehicles for property taxes at their salvage value. That value could not exceed $500. At the most costly rate in West Virginia (approximately 3%), the actual property tax paid by antique motor vehicle owners at the maximum salvage value would be only about $15 per year.
DON’T DELAY! Please contact members of the West Virginia House Roads and Transportation Committee immediately to request their support of H.B. 4068. Please e-mail a copy of your letter to stevem@sema.org. Thank you for your assistance.
