December car-tab renewal notices sent late due to I-976
SEATTLE — December car-tab renewal notices were sent to Washington state vehicle owners five to six weeks late due to a new tax initiative, the Department of Licensing said.
The I-976 tax cut measure that passed in November caused December renewal notices to be sent late while the state waited for possible court intervention, The Seattle Times reports.
A King County judge issued an injunction to halt the tax cut in late November, followed by a Dec. 4 order by the Washington Supreme Court that puts I-976 on hold pending hearings.
Some drivers might receive their bills after the December date by which the tabs should be affixed to rear license plates, officials said.
Washington State Patrol troopers have been briefed on the licensing delay and will use appropriate discretion in dealing with vehicles that have outdated tabs, the department said.
