This bill establishes new distinctive license plates for the organizations Pheasants Forever, Quail Forever, and Delta Waterfowl in Kansas. Starting July 1, 2026, residents who own or lease passenger vehicles or trucks weighing 20,000 pounds or less can apply for Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever license plates, with a logo use royalty payment ranging from $25 to $100. The bill outlines the application process, which includes a requirement for the annual royalty payment to the county treasurer, and specifies that the plates are non-transferable. Additionally, the design of the plates will be approved by the director of vehicles.
Furthermore, beginning January 1, 2027, the bill allows for the issuance of Delta Waterfowl license plates under similar conditions, including the same royalty payment structure and application process. The bill mandates that applicants consent to the release of their motor vehicle record information to the respective organizations and the state treasurer. The collection and remittance of the annual royalty payments will follow existing provisions, with specific arrangements for the Delta Waterfowl license plate payments to be made monthly to the Delta Waterfowl Foundation.
