Amendment #35 to H3860

An Amendment establishing an auction or online transfer for low number registration plates in the registry of motor vehicles

Ms. Ferrante of Gloucester moves to amend the bill in section XX by adding the following section: "The registrar shall establish within the department a low number registration plate auction or on-line transfer system.  Such auction shall be conducted on an annual basis to be determined by the registrar.  Said registrar shall establish rules and eligibility requirements for all applicants.  Such applicants may only apply to the auction once annually regardless of the number of active registrations they may have.  Registration plates will only be awarded in the order in which they are listed by the registrar and all applicants shall be residents of the commonwealth with an active Massachusetts' driver's license.  Applicant requests for a specific registration plate number shall not be honored and this program shall be strictly voluntary.
