Senator Billig Proposes Bill To Charge Fee To Use Studded Tires
A shoutout to Senator Andy Billig, from right here in Spokane, for co-sponsoring a bill that would require a permit for using studded tires. The annual fee would be $75. The bill requires the fee be used for highway preservation related to damage caused by studded tires. I'll track this bill and keep you updated.
