Also included are the tab renewal fees, licensing and registration, etc. 100% of the money used to go into the General Fund and transportation funding came out of there. The changes will not be immediate but slowly phased in (I believe fully by 2011?). This is a good thing people; it will draw more people to the Twin Cities Metropolitan area, raise property values in the outer-ring suburbs (and beyond), and make it easier for everyone to get around in general whether you drive or take public transportation.
