Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The purpose of this bill is to permit the issuance of a special license plate to support adoption. The plate carries a one-time $10 fee and an annual fee of $15 in addition to all other fees. The Division estimates it will cost $2,990 (26 hrs. x $115/hr.) for programming the cash register, and $3,600 (40 hrs. x $90/hr.) for mainframe programming. Registration plates of this nature cost approximately $7 per plate. Total Current expense of $6,597 ($2,990 + $3,600 + $7). This estimate assumes one registration plate purchased in year 1 and renewed in year 2.
