To reduce the business license fee for WV Volunteer Fire Departments to $250

HB 3212 reduces the annual license fee for volunteer fire departments in West Virginia from $500 to $250 when conducting charitable raffles. The bill directly affects volunteer fire departments and their auxiliaries by lowering their required fee to the Tax Commissioner. The key provision amends §47-21-7 of the West Virginia Code to set the new $250 fee amount, while keeping all revenue in the existing special account for investigatory activities. This change applies only to the annual license fee for raffles, leaving other tax exemptions for raffle proceeds unchanged.
