Chapter 70 - Oil and Gas
Article 5 - Liquefied and Compressed Gases
Section 70-5-19 - Municipalities; taxes; license fees.
Nothing contained in the LPG and CNG Act [this article] shall be construed as preventing any municipality from collecting local occupation taxes or license fees under the provisions of any local ordinance, but licensees under the LPG and CNG Act are specifically exempted from application of the Construction Industries Licensing Act [Chapter 60, Article 13 NMSA 1978], the Uniform Licensing Act [61-1-1 NMSA 1978] and the Manufactured Housing Act [Chapter 60, Article 14 NMSA 1978] insofar as their LP gas operations or CNG equipment attached to or to be attached to motor vehicles are concerned.
History: 1941 Comp., § 71-823, enacted by Laws 1947, ch. 214, § 20; 1953 Comp., § 65-7-20; Laws 1973, ch. 362, § 19; 1993, ch. 186, § 16.
The 1993 amendment, effective July 1, 1993, inserted "and CNG" preceding "Act" near the beginning and near the middle of the section, and substituted the language beginning "the Uniform Licensing Act" for "insofar as their LP gas operations are concerned" at the end of the section.
