Late last week, HF580 was introduced by Representatives Koegel (DFL-Spring Lake Park) and Hornstein (DFL-Minneapolis) to establish a mandatory delivery fee for personal property (goods/product) delivered by motor vehicle. The bill requires any retailer selling personal property (goods/product) to charge a delivery fee (ranging from $0.40 in 2024 to $0.50 in 2027) and then remit the fee back to the state. The remitted fees would be used to fund the highway user tax distribution fund (60%), metropolitan area transit account (36%) and the great Minnesota transit account (4%). We are working to fully understand the implications for food delivery. The bill has not yet been scheduled for a hearing, nor is there a companion bill in the Senate.
