Currently, the Director of the Department of Revenue awards licensing fee office contracts through a competitive bidding process.
This bill allows the Director to enter into a contract with a political subdivision, service organization, or other reputable business to operate a fee office if the Department receives no qualified bids after issuing two requests for proposals seeking bids.
The bill requires all online renewal submissions for licenses and for vehicle and vessel registration to be forwarded to the local fee office of the applicant's preference. Those online renewal submissions will be processed only by the applicant's preferred local fee office.
