Bill > A05609

This bill allows for the creation and issuance of special license plates commemorating the "75th Anniversary of Ducks Unlimited," which is an organization focused on waterfowl and wetland conservation. Residents of the state can request these distinctive plates, which will feature the specified anniversary wording. In addition to the standard registration fees, there will be an extra annual service charge of $25 for these special plates. This additional money will be deposited into the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) distinctive plate development fund, which is used for designing, producing, advertising, and distributing various special license plates. The bill also outlines conditions for the issuance of these plates, including the potential requirement of a surety bond unless a minimum number of orders (200) are received with their non-refundable service charges. The provisions related to the plates themselves will take effect 180 days after the bill becomes law, while other administrative aspects can be implemented immediately.
