Current Bill Summary

SB 370 - Currently, the Missouri Department of Conservation charges fees for the acquisition of hunting, fishing, and trapping permits. Under this act, an individual, business, or corporation owning at least 80 acres of real property in Missouri shall only be assessed 50% of the nonresident fee for acquiring a hunting, fishing, or trapping permit for use only on the real property owned, provided that such nonresident can also provide a property tax receipt for such property.
