kidney disease awareness special plates
What changed between versions
All provisions establishing a military transitional housing fund, including funding sources, spending restrictions, and reporting requirements, were removed from the bill.
A new kidney disease awareness special plate fund was created, requiring a $32,000 implementation fee and collecting $17 annual donations per plate that go to a qualified health organization.
The state highway fund definition was updated to clarify that special plate administration fees and donations are excluded from highway user revenues, with specific allocations for kidney disease awareness plate donations.
General requirements for all special plates were added, including design standards, color contrast rules, state name specifications, and restrictions on contracting with non-governmental entities for reflective materials.
New provisions allow kidney disease awareness special plates to be combined with personalized plates and specify that special plates must be issued only to current vehicle owners or lessees of vehicles weighing 26,000 pounds or less.
New misdemeanor penalties were added for fraudulent applications, concealment of material facts, or unauthorized transfer of special plates.
