House Bill 1060 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 70-2-106, specifically addressing the fees that agents can collect for selling licenses, permits, stamps, tags, registrations, and other privileges. The bill replaces the existing language in subsection (b)(1) with new provisions that establish a flat fee of three dollars ($3.00) for each annual license or permit sold, as well as for those valid for a specified day or number of days. Additionally, the bill allows the executive director to set an agent fee through competitive bidding for agents who sell these items via telephone or electronic means.
The changes aim to streamline the fee structure for agents and provide flexibility in how licenses and permits can be sold. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency of the public welfare in implementing these changes.
