AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- REGISTRATION OF VEHICLES

HB 7780 creates a special license plate for vehicles registered with the Rhode Island Hockey Hall of Fame. Vehicle owners who choose this plate pay a $40 one-time fee (split $20 to the state general fund and $20 to the Hall of Fame) plus a $10 annual renewal fee, all going to support the Hall's mission. The plate replaces standard registration, requires design approval, and mandates that Hall of Fame funds benefit Rhode Island charities, with annual financial reports required.
