AZ HB2493

Imposes a $70 per registration year use fuel tax adjustment (credit) for owners of light class and certain exempt use class motor vehicles propelled by use fuel at the time of vehicle registration.

Establishes a tiered monthly deduction from refunds for the use fuel tax adjustment based on registration period (one-twelfth for annual, one-twenty-fourth for biennial, one-sixtieth for five-year registrations).

Consolidates use fuel tax rates by imposing 26 cents per gallon on both use class motor vehicles and light class motor vehicles, with a 9 cents per gallon rate for vehicles transporting forest products through December 31, 2024.

Repeals sections 28-5605, 28-5617, and 28-5623 of Arizona Revised Statutes and removes references to "use fuel vendors" throughout the motor fuel tax provisions.

Amends vehicle registration refund procedures in section 28-2356 to account for the new use fuel tax adjustment when owners transfer license plates or claim refunds.
