Bill > HB207

This bill modifies provisions related to Missouri Department of Revenue fee offices, primarily focusing on the fees that can be charged for various motor vehicle and licensing services. The bill increases fees for vehicle registrations, title transfers, driver's licenses, and other administrative services. For example, motor vehicle registration fees would change from a flat rate to different amounts based on whether it's an annual or biennial registration. The bill also establishes new rules for awarding fee office contracts, requiring a competitive bidding process that gives preference to non-profit organizations, particularly those that reinvest at least 75% of their net proceeds into Missouri charities. Additionally, the bill prohibits the awarding of fee office contracts to entities affiliated with current or recent Department of Revenue employees, and allows the director of revenue to extend competitively awarded contracts for up to five years. The legislation specifies that fees collected by contract fee offices can be retained by those offices, while fees collected by department-operated offices are considered state revenue. The bill also ensures that the state auditor can audit fee office records while maintaining confidentiality of personal information.
