MTR VEHICLE/LICEN PLATES: Creates a specialty license plate for the St. Edmund Catholic School Bluejays
This bill authorizes the creation of a specialty license plate for the St. Edmund Catholic School Bluejays. It requires the state secretary of transportation to work with the school to choose the plate's colors and design, which must include the specific team name. Drivers who wish to display this plate will be able to do so under the same rules and fees that apply to other special prestige plates in Louisiana. The legislation adds this specific school to a list of other high schools that are eligible for such custom vehicle registration options.
