The Honorable Mike Petersen, Chairperson
Senate Committee on Transportation
300 SW 10th Avenue, Room 546-S
Topeka, Kansas 66612
Dear Senator Petersen:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for SB 342 by Senate Committee on Federal and State Affairs
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning SB 342 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
SB 342 would create the Sedgwick County Zoo distinctive license plate. The bill would
allow any Kansas resident who is the owner of a passenger vehicle or truck of a gross weight of
20,000 pounds or less, or motorcycle to be issued one Sedgwick County Zoo distinctive license
plate for each vehicle on and after January 1, 2025. The distinctive license plate would be issued
upon proper registration and payment of fees.
The Department of Revenue estimates the enactment of SB 342 would increase its
expenditures by $2,340 in FY 2025 for administrative costs related to designing and manufacturing
of the new license plate. The Department would collect the up to $5,000 fee for plate development
as there is a required sponsor fee. The Department indicates that the license plate would be subject
to the $40 special plate application fee and the $40 personalized plate application fee if the
applicant chose to personalize the license plate. Any fiscal effect associated with SB 342 is not
reflected in The FY 2025 Governor’s Budget Report.


Sincerely,

Adam C. Proffitt
Director of the Budget
