Fee for paper registration renewal notice
Under this bill, for a vehicle registration renewal notice that DOT sends by mail, DOT must charge the recipient a fee of $0.33 and deposit all such fees in the transportation fund.
Under current law, a person may not operate a vehicle on any highway unless the vehicle is registered with DOT. At least 30 days prior to the expiration of a vehicle's registration, DOT must mail to the registrant a notice of the date upon which the vehicle's registration must be renewed. DOT is also authorized to test and evaluate the effectiveness of alternative methods of processing and distributing vehicle registration renewals.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
