The proposed bill establishes an Arizona bicycling special plate and creates the Arizona Bicycling Special Plate Fund. To initiate this, a person must pay a $32,000 implementation fee by December 31, 2024, and will be responsible for designing the plate, subject to approval by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). The bill outlines that of the $25 fee for obtaining or renewing the special plate, $8 will go towards administration and $17 will be considered a donation. Additionally, the bill allows for the combination of requests for the bicycling special plate with personalized plates, with fees applicable for both.

The bill also mandates that the Fund be administered by the Director of ADOT, with the first $32,000 reimbursed to the person who paid the implementation fee. It specifies that no more than 10% of the Fund's annual revenue can be used for administrative costs, and the remaining funds must be allocated to a qualified 501(c)(3) organization that meets certain criteria, including producing significant bicycling events and contributing to community wellness. The bill makes technical amendments to existing statutes regarding special plates and ensures that the Fund's resources are continuously appropriated.
