Committee on Transportation & Infrastructure

Overview

Establishes the Gila River Indian Community special plate.

History

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is required to provide every vehicle owner one license plate for every vehicle registered upon application and payment of fees (A.R.S. § 28-2351). Special plates may be issued by ADOT in the place of regular plates, upon application (A.R.S. § 28-2403). An initial and annual renewal fee of $25 is required for the special plate in addition to the vehicle registration fees. Of the $25 special plate fee, $8 is an administrative fee and $17 is an annual donation to a specified organization (A.R.S. § 28-2402). Special plates are established through statutory authority and require a standard $32,000 implementation fee from a person.
