-    LEGISLATIVE REPORT – It’s time for the biennial “short” session. Jeff Finn cautions that there will be few bills that will be getting a hearing. SEVA officially endorses SB6001, the Supplemental Transportation Appropriations package. You are encouraged to contact your lawmakers and indicate your support. Attention is also being paid to making California’s Zero Emission Vehicle mandate regulations applicable in WA State, and appropriate funds to extend the Road Usage Charge research, planning, and implementation processes. We want to eliminate the $100 fee for motorcycles.

Check out RelayRides. And (big coincidence) our member Lee Colleton has used this to rent out his Mitsubishi iMiev electric car!
