Bill > HB774

This bill establishes a new "Pediatric Cancer Awareness" specialty license plate in Ohio. It amends existing law to create a new section, 4503.898, which outlines the process for obtaining these plates. Vehicle owners can apply for the plates, which will feature a logo and words selected by "littlest heroes, inc." (an organization that provides financial support to families battling pediatric cancer and other childhood illnesses) and approved by the registrar of motor vehicles. In addition to standard registration fees and a ten-dollar administrative fee that goes to the public safety fund, applicants must pay a ten-dollar contribution. This contribution will be deposited into the license plate contribution fund, as established in section 4501.21 of the Revised Code, and then distributed to "littlest heroes, inc." to support their mission. The bill also repeals existing section 4501.21, which likely details the management of the license plate contribution fund.
