Bill > LB1127

This bill introduces a new type of permit called a "hangtag permit" for motor vehicles under the Game Law, which governs hunting and fishing regulations. The hangtag permit, available to residents starting January 1, 2027, will be valid for the entire year and must be displayed in the vehicle it's issued for, though it can be transferred between vehicles registered to the same permit holder. The cost of this permit will be the combined price of a resident annual permit, a duplicate annual permit, and a convenience fee, which the commission can set up to fifteen dollars. The bill also modifies how permits are displayed, allowing hangtag permits to be hung from the rearview mirror or placed on the dashboard if no mirror is present, while other permits will continue to be affixed to the windshield. Additionally, hangtag permits will have a more limited procurement process, only being available from the commission's central and district offices and designated areas within the Nebraska state park system, unlike other permits which can be obtained from a wider range of locations and agents. The bill also clarifies that, with the exception of hangtag permits, all other permits are nontransferable and only valid for the specific vehicle they are issued to.
