This bill proposes several updates to the Arizona Revised Statutes regarding special license plates. It introduces a new section, 28-2470.27, which will allow for the issuance of sorority and fraternity special plates, contingent upon an entity paying $32,000 to the department by December 31, 2025. The design and color of these plates will be subject to the department's approval, and the bill also allows for the combination of requests for these special plates with personalized plates, subject to additional fees. Furthermore, the bill establishes a sorority and fraternity special plate fund, which will be continuously appropriated and administered by the director.

Additionally, the bill modifies the allocation of fees associated with special plates. It specifies that of the $25 fee for original and renewal special plates, $8 will be designated as an administration fee, while $17 will be an annual donation. The department is required to deposit these fees into the state highway fund and the newly established sorority and fraternity special plate fund. The bill also outlines the purposes for which the fund's monies can be allocated, emphasizing community education and support for the well-being of affiliated sororities and fraternities. Overall, the bill updates existing statutes to incorporate these new provisions and streamline the management of special plates.
