Plain-language change summary

The key change in Bill HB 2139 is the adjustment of an effective date, which now states that certain fees will take effect on September 30, 2025, instead of September 30, 2026. Additionally, the fee for campers has been amended to $4.90, down from the previously proposed $3.50. This earlier implementation date is significant because it means that individuals and organizations who use these camping and mobile home facilities will need to prepare for these changes one year sooner, impacting their budget planning for 2025.
