Bill > HB2506

This bill amends the Illinois Vehicle Code to clarify the fee structure for military series registration plates issued to veterans with disabilities. Currently, veterans who have a service-connected disability of 50% or more can receive registration plates without paying the standard registration fee for one personal vehicle. The bill specifically states that any additional fees associated with issuing or renewing these special military series registration plates will not be included in the existing fee waiver. This means that while veterans with disabilities can still obtain the plates without paying the base registration fee, they will now be required to pay any supplemental fees that may be associated with these specialized military plates. The change ensures that the fee waiver only applies to the standard registration cost and does not extend to all potential plate-related charges, potentially creating a small additional cost for disabled veterans seeking these specific registration plates.
