The start of July usually means the start of summer in Washington, but it also means the annual increase of fees approved by the Legislature and the increase of some tolls.
The Legislature used a lot of fee increases to help pay for the $17-billion transportation package last session. Some of those fees go up on July 1st. Christine Anthony at the Department of Licensing said most of the fee increases center on new license plates. “They are not fee increases to your vehicle registration,” she said. “They’re attached to when you’re buying a car or if you need to get a replacement license plate.
The fee increases also hit the new and replacement plates for motorcycles. $4 to $20 for a new one. $4 to $12 for a replacement. Since I had DOL on the horn, I decided to ask Anthony how the agency is doing overall. Its offices were closed during the pandemic, but Anthony said that actually helped the agency get better.
