Auto license fee measure may be presented today
Indiana administration proposes a two base system of license fees for motor vehicles based on weight and horsepower, replacing the present single horsepower approach. The bill doubles last year’s collected fees, with a quarterly refund option for title and plate cancellations before March 31. It also raises motorcycle taxes and imposes new plate fees for manufacturers and trailers, using the national formula for horsepower.
