  DON’T DELAY!  Please request support for L.B. 53 immediately from Governor Ricketts now:

You may use the following points in your message:

  • Special interest motor vehicle means a motor vehicle of any age which is being collected, preserved, restored, or maintained by the owner as a leisure pursuit and not used for general transportation of persons or cargo. 
     
  • L.B. 53 would protect the aesthetic contours of certain vehicles and relieve vehicle owners of the burden and expense of having to create mounting holes on some original bumpers. 
     
  • L.B. 53 provides that a license decal would be issued with the single license plate and would be displayed on the driver's side of the windshield. 
     
  • L.B. 53 provides that owners who request a single license plate and license decal would be charged an additional annual nonrefundable fee of $100 in addition to the cost of the decal.  It is not required that vehicle owners request a single plate.
     
  •  L.B. 53, if enacted into law, would take effect on January 1, 2017.

Overview: Legislation (L.B. 53) to provide for the issuance (for an annual $100 fee) of a single license plate for passenger cars which were not originally equipped with a bracket on the front of the vehicle to display a plate was approved by the Nebraska State Legislature.   The bill also allows special interest vehicles that use the special interest vehicle license plate to run a single plate.  The bill will now be sent to Governor Pete Ricketts for his signature and enactment into law.
