5336 Vehicle Maintenance

Real or personal property which is directly related to the maintenance or use of a vehicle that is used primarily for producing income or necessary to transport a physically disabled household member shall be excluded as a resource. Only that portion of real property determined necessary for maintenance or use is excludable under this provision. For example, a household which owns a produce truck to earn its livelihood may be prohibited from parking the truck in a residential area. The household may own a 100-acre field and use a quarter acre of the field to park and/or service the truck. Only the value of the quarter acre would be excludable under this provision, not the entire 100-acre field.
