Under current law, DNR administers the registration system for all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), boats, and snowmobiles. Current law authorizes DNR to appoint agents, who are not DNR employees, to issue all-terrain vehicle and snowmobile registration certificates, and certificates of number and registration certificates for boats. Under current law, DNR may implement both a noncomputerized procedure and a computerized procedure for issuing original and duplicate registration documents and for transferring and renewing these documents. Under either procedure, DNR or its agents issue adequate documentation so that the registrant is immediately able to operate the ATV, boat, or snowmobile in compliance with the applicable registration laws. Under the noncomputerized procedure, agents collect a service fee of $3 from the registrant; there is no service fee if the application is submitted directly to DNR. Under the computerized procedure, both agents and DNR collect the $3 service fee; and if the $3 fee is collected by an agent, the agent sends $1 of the fee to DNR.
For all three types of registration, this bill eliminates the computerized and noncomputerized procedures as separate procedures. Instead, for ATV and snowmobile registration, the bill allows DNR to implement two procedures, one under which the applicant is issued a validated receipt showing the registration of the vehicle at the time of application, and another procedure under which the applicant receives, in addition to the receipt, a least one decal that can be immediately placed on the vehicle. For an application submitted directly to DNR, there is no fee for receiving just the receipt, and the fee for the receipt plus a decal is $5. For an application submitted to an agent, the fee for just the receipt is $3. The fee for a receipt and a decal is $5 with the agent sending $1 of the $5 to DNR.
For boat registration, the bill allows DNR to implement the procedure under which the applicant receives a receipt and at least one decal that can be immediately placed on the boat. The fee for this type of registration is $5, with the agent sending $1 of the $5 to DNR.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.

2005 - 2006 LEGISLATURE
DOA:......Milioto, BB0058 - Guardianship and adult protective services grants
For 2005-07 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
2005 BILL
AN ACT ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
health and human services
Mental illness and developmental disabilities
Under current law, DHFS annually awards grants of general purpose revenues to applying private, nonprofit agencies and county departments of social services, human services, community programs, or developmental disabilities services, for the purposes of recruiting, training, monitoring, and assisting guardians for persons who are adjudicated incompetent. Grants are awarded, in part, on the basis of need for recruitment, training, monitoring, and assistance of guardians for persons in the applicants' communities.
This bill eliminates that part of the Guardianship Grant Program (GGP) under which awardees must recruit individuals or organizations to act as guardians and monitor the performance of recruited guardians. The bill eliminates community need for guardians as a basis for awarding guardianship grants and makes minor changes to GGP.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
