Journal:11-county committee supports UTV legislation, gets mandate relief update

The balance of UTV usage hangs in the Assembly 
It looks like the communities and counties are behind registering UTVs or Side by Side recreational vehicles. The Adirondack legislative group, that represents 11 counties in NNY unanimously supports Assembly bill No. 7743. This bill would increase registration weight 500 lbs. to 1500 lbs., allowing individuals to register their UTV as they do their ATV.

UTVs have many features such as roll bars, dump boxes, and family seating that make them more practical and family friendly. This is an upstate issues and the downstate and NYC assembly members continue to decide what we can do.

This bill passed the Senate last year and still has not made it to the floor for a vote in the assembly. Addie where are you? Hopefully, you support this UTV legislation. It has been supported by the Adirondack legislative group (11 counties), sportsmen, hunters, and outdoor enthusiast.

Plus NYS will get their cut when individuals start regististering their UTVs.

Addie is in the same place she was when they tried to legislate microstamping. New York City may need gun control, but we do not live in NYC and we drive UTVs and ATVs. This bill was sponsored by A. MAGEE, and Ken Blankenbush and referred to the Committee on Transportation and that is where it sits. Come on Addie, time to get on board.

Poly is true blue GOP but micro-stamping was a farce. Implement a law that still has no clear patient on the production of these guns. Cart before the horse, u think! Why is the bill UTV bill still in committee?
