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 amendment specifies that these individuals are entitled to use the tag on their official and private vehicles, provided they comply with state motor vehicle registration laws and pay the regular license fees. Additionally, the bill introduces a requirement for the USS Alabama Battleship Commission to annually certify a list of eligible individuals to the Department of Revenue, ensuring that only those who meet the criteria can obtain the distinctive license tag.
Key changes in the bill include the insertion of language that expands eligibility for the license tag to both former and current chairs of the commission, as well as the addition of a unique individual identifier on the tag. The bill also establishes a new certification process for the commission, mandating that the list of eligible chairs be submitted to the Department of Revenue at least 30 days before the start of each registration year. The act is set to take effect on January 1, 2024, following its passage and approval by the Governor.
