A bill (H.B. 4068) to provide owners of antique and classic motor vehicles with a cap on property taxes paid on these vehicles was passed by the Senate Finance Committee and will now be considered by the entire Senate. The bill has already passed in the West Virginia House of Representatives and, if approved by the Senate, will be sent to the governor for his signature and enactment into law.
We Urge You to Contact All Senate Members (Contact Info Below) Immediately To Request Their Support for H.B. 4068
- 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. The law defines a “Classic Motor Vehicle” as a motor vehicle which is more than twenty-five years old and is used for general transportation.
- H.B. 4068 would value antique and classic motor vehicles for property taxes at $1,000. At the most costly rate in West Virginia (approximately 3%), the actual property tax paid by antique or classic motor vehicle owners at the $1,000 value would still only be about $30 per year.
DON’T DELAY! Please contact members of the West Virginia Senate immediately to request their support of H.B. 4068. Please e-mail a copy of your letter to Steve McDonald at stevem@sema.org. Thank you for your assistance.
