Vehicles: permanent registration for noncommercial trailers
What they say
His campaign says he established a permanent vehicle registration option for noncommercial trailers in 2023, saving time and cost for the owners of six hundred thousand trailers.
“In 2023, Merrin succeeded in establishing a permanent vehicle registration option for non-commercial trailers, which saves time and costs for the state owners of 600,000 trailers (HB23).”
What the record shows ·
Revised Code section 4503.107 lets the owner or lessee of a noncommercial trailer apply for permanent registration. It took effect June 30, 2023, and the Code names House Bill 23 of the 135th General Assembly as its legislation. His own bill on the subject, H.B. 96 of the 134th, passed the House and went no further.
Limit: The claim names the vehicle and the Code agrees. The count of six hundred thousand trailers is the campaign's figure and is not verified here, and the record does not show who drafted the budget's provision.
