Sales and use taxes: exemptions: California Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project: transit buses.

Summary

The bill amends California’s tax code to keep the sales and use tax break for zero‑emission transit buses purchased by public agencies for two more years. It applies to buses that qualify for the state’s Hybrid and Zero‑Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project. The change matters because it reduces purchase costs for agencies adopting cleaner public‑transport vehicles.
