Purpose of the Bill

This legislative bill in Minnesota aims to make changes related to transportation fees by exempting certain deliveries from the retail delivery fee specifically focusing on liquid fuels.

Main Provisions

  • Fuel Delivery Exemption: The bill proposes an exemption for the delivery of liquid fuels from the retail delivery fee. This means when liquid fuels are delivered, the associated delivery fee typically charged will not apply.
  • Other Exemptions: In addition to liquid fuels, the bill maintains exemptions for retail deliveries such as:
    1. Deliveries to purchasers exempt from taxes under specific state chapters.
    2. Deliveries involving a motor vehicle that requires a permit by transportation authorities and meets certain records requirements.
    3. Deliveries of food products, whether sold as groceries or prepared meals from food and beverage service establishments.
    4. Deliveries of drugs, medical devices, accessories, and baby products.

Significant Changes

  • Introduction of Subdivision for Fuel Products: The bill introduces a new subdivision defining "fuel products" specifically as liquid fuels, thereby formalizing the language in the existing legal framework.
  • Expansion of Exempt Categories: By adding fuel products to the list of exempt categories, the bill changes the scope of transactions affected by the retail delivery fee, reducing the financial burden on transactions involving the delivery of liquid fuels.
