SB 922, explained

Vehicles: local agency charges: use of streets or highways.

Active In Floor Process · Author: Laird

In plain English

This bill clarifies that local agencies can charge fees to companies that provide public services (like water or internet companies) to help pay for maintaining streets and roads. The bill says these fees are not the same as taxes or permits, so they don't break existing rules that limit what fees cities and counties can charge.
