The bill amends Section 32-6-55 of the Code of Alabama 1975 to allow both former and current chairs of the USS Alabama Battleship Commission to utilize a distinctive license tag featuring the battleship's insignia "BB-60." The new legal language specifies that these individuals are entitled to use the USS Alabama Battleship Commission distinctive license tag on their official and private vehicles. Additionally, the bill requires that the commission annually certify a list of eligible individuals to the Department of Revenue, ensuring that only those who meet the criteria can obtain the special license tag.
Key insertions in the bill include the addition of the terms "former and current" to describe the chairs eligible for the license tag, as well as the requirement for the USS Alabama Battleship Commission to provide an annual certification to the Department of Revenue. The certification must include a numerical list of eligible chairs and be submitted at least 30 days before the start of each registration year. The bill will take effect on January 1, 2024, following its passage and approval by the Governor.
