URGENT LEGISLATIVE ALERT

ACT NOW! Ohio Bill to Restrict Inoperable Project Vehicles to be Considered on Nov. 30th

H.B. 560, the bill to restrict vehicle hobbyists from maintaining project vehicles on private property will be considered on Thursday, Nov. 30th. The bill allows townships to confiscate inoperable vehicles deemed to be ?junk,? including collector cars, from private property.

Contact the Chairman of the Local and Municipal Government and Urban Revitalization Committee Immediately To Oppose H.B. 560

The SEMA Action Network supports legislation that permits the outdoor storage of a motor vehicle if the vehicle is maintained in such a manner as not to constitute a health hazard. These vehicles could be located away from public view, or screened by means of a suitable fence, trees, shrubbery, opaque covering or other appropriate means. H.B. 560, however, makes no concession for even properly maintained project cars.

DON?T DELAY!!! Forward a copy of this ALERT to all interested persons. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter!

Chairman of Local and Municipal Government and Urban Revitalization Committee

Representative Larry Wolpert

FYI from the sema san website....

"Ohio H.B. 560, the bill to allow townships to confiscate inoperable vehicles deemed to be ?junk,? including collector cars, from private property died when the 2006 Ohio legislative session adjourned for the year. The bill was approved by the House, but was not considered by the Senate. It is highly likely that the bill will be reintroduced in 2007.

We will work with the Ohio legislature in the coming months to modify the bill?s language to provide that project cars will be guaranteed protection when properly maintained on private property."
