California Legislation to Extend Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Program Signed by Governor

 

Legislation (S.B. 159 and S.B. 249) has been signed into law to permanently reauthorize California’s Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation (OHMVR) program.

California’s Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation (OHMVR) program was established in 1971.  The OHMVR program provides funds to local, state and federal agencies, educational institutions and nonprofit entities for OHV management on both federal and state lands. California OHV user taxes and fees directly fund OHV management and facility maintenance.  This self-sustaining program doesn’t require general fund taxes.

Thank you to those who participated in supporting these bills.
