Legislation (H.B. 2449) in the West Virginia Legislature to provide owners of antique motor vehicles with a fair and equitable personal property tax assessment was approved by the House Roads and Transportation Committee. The bills seek to address recent unfair valuation practices which have negatively impacted many West Virginia hobbyists. The bill now moves to the House Finance Committee for consideration.
We Urge You to Contact Members of the House Finance Committee (List Attached) Immediately To Request Their Support for H.B. 2449
- 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. 2449 provides that for the purposes of the property tax, the assessed value of an antique vehicle cannot exceed $200.
DON’T DELAY! Please contact members of the West Virginia House Finance Committee immediately to request their support of H.B. 2449.
