HB 1592: Special license plates

Regulating special license plates.

Summary

  • The Special License Plate Review Board is created and is charged with reviewing special license plate applications from sponsoring organizations requesting the creation of a new special plate series.
  • Sponsoring organizations must be non-profit organizations and must prepay the start-up costs associated with implementing a new plate series. If they cannot afford to pre-pay the start-up costs, other processes are created to minimize the financial liability incurred by the state.
