SB 86 - This act allows the forfeiture of property used in illegal dumping activities across the state. Violations of Chapter 260, RSMo, relating to the disposal of waste, are added to the Criminal Activities Forfeiture Act (CAFA).
Kansas City is authorized to enact a specific ordinance to
require the forfeiture of motor vehicles used in the illegal
dumping of solid waste or demolition waste. All local forfeiture
proceedings shall be conducted in accordance with state CAFA
procedures, with some additional protection for co-owners of the
motor vehicle. The city may use the proceeds as it sees fit.
The city may also enact ordinances prohibiting illegal dumping
with penalties no greater than those under state law.
