American Legion, special license plates--emblem authorization, application procedure, fees, design.

301.3062. 1. Any vehicle owner who is a member of and has obtained an

annual emblem-use authorization statement from the American Legion may apply

for American Legion license plates for any motor vehicle the person owns,

either solely or jointly, other than an apportioned motor vehicle or a

commercial motor vehicle licensed in excess of eighteen thousand pounds gross

weight. The American Legion hereby authorizes the use of their official

emblem to be affixed on multiyear personalized license plates as provided in

this section. Any vehicle owner may annually apply for the use of the emblem.



2. Upon annual application and payment of a twenty-five-dollar

emblem-use contribution to the American Legion, the American Legion shall

issue to the vehicle owner, without further charge, an emblem-use

authorization statement, which shall be presented to the department of

revenue at the time of registration of a motor vehicle.



3. Upon presentation of the annual statement and payment of a

fifteen-dollar fee in addition to the regular registration fees and

presentation of other documents which may be required by law, the department

of revenue shall issue a personalized license plate to the vehicle owner,

which shall bear the emblem of the American Legion in a form prescribed by

the director. Such license plates shall be made with fully reflective

material with a common color scheme and design, shall be clearly visible at

night, and shall be aesthetically attractive, as prescribed by section

301.130. A fee for the issuance of personalized license plates issued

pursuant to section 301.144 shall not be required for plates issued pursuant

to this section.



4. A vehicle owner, who was previously issued a plate with the American

Legion emblem authorized by this section but who does not provide an

emblem-use authorization statement at a subsequent time of registration,

shall be issued a new plate which does not bear the American Legion emblem,

as otherwise provided by law.



5. The director of revenue may promulgate rules and regulations for the

administration of this section. No rule or portion of a rule promulgated

pursuant to the authority of this section shall become effective unless it

has been promulgated pursuant to the provisions of chapter 536.
