A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to special license plates.
BE IT
ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Chapter 249, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new section to be appropriately designated and to read as follows:
"§249- Special number plates; civil air patrol. (a)
In lieu of the number plates contracted
on behalf of the counties by the director of finance of the city and county of
Honolulu, the director of finance shall provide, for a fee, one set of special
number plates upon the receipt of an application together with specific
proof that the applicant was or is a member of the Hawaii civil air patrol.
(b) The design of the plates for former and current
Hawaii civil air patrol shall include the words "HAWAII CIVIL AIR PATROL".
This designation shall be imprinted on
the left side of the license plates in a manner similar to congressional and
honorary consul license plates.
(c) Registration certificates and license plates
issued under this section shall not be transferable to any other person. Special number plates for service in the Hawaii
civil air patrol shall be assigned to a noncommercial passenger motor vehicle,
a noncommercial motorcycle, or motor scooter registered in the name of the
qualified applicant. Prior to the
transfer of the ownership of the qualified person's vehicle to another party,
the special number plates shall be surrendered to the director of finance as a
condition to the issuance of replacement special number plates; provided that
the director of finance shall allow the survivor of the qualified person, upon
request, to retain the front special number plate as a memorial.
(d) The director of finance shall authorize the design of a license plate that is readily identifiable and distinguishable under actual traffic conditions and shall adopt rules pursuant to chapter 91 to carry out this section."
SECTION 2. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
