8-1,153. Helping schools license plate; procedure; requirements. (a) Any owner or lessee of one or more passenger vehicles or trucks registered for a gross weight of 20,000 pounds or less, who is a resident of Kansas, upon compliance with the provisions of this section, may be issued one helping schools license plate for each such passenger vehicle or truck. Such license plates shall be issued for the same time as other license plates upon proper registration and payment of the regular license fee as provided in K.S.A. 8-143, and amendments thereto, and either the payment to the county treasurer of the logo use royalty payment established by the board or the presentation of the annual logo use authorization statement provided for in subsection (b). (b) The state board of education may authorize the use of the logo to be affixed on license plates as provided by this section. Any royalty payment received pursuant to this section shall be remitted to the state treasurer in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the helping schools license plate program fund. Any motor vehicle owner or lessee annually may apply to the state board of education for the use of such logo. Upon annual application and payment to either: (1) The board in an amount of $40 as a logo use royalty payment for each license plate to be issued, the board shall issue to the motor vehicle owner or lessee, without further charge, a logo use authorization statement, which shall be presented by the motor vehicle owner or lessee at the time of registration; or (2) the county treasurer of the logo use royalty payment for each license plate to be issued. (c) Any applicant for a license plate authorized by this section may make application for such plates not less than 60 days prior to such person's renewal of registration date, on a form prescribed and furnished by the director of vehicles, and any applicant for such license plates shall either provide the annual logo use authorization statement provided for in subsection (b) or pay to the county treasurer the logo use royalty payment established by the board. Application for registration of a passenger vehicle or truck and issuance of the license plate under this section shall be made by the owner or lessee in a manner prescribed by the director of vehicles upon forms furnished by the director. The school district to receive the royalty payment shall be designated by the applicant on such forms. (d) No registration or license plate issued under this section shall be transferable to any other person. (e) The director of vehicles may transfer helping schools license plates from a leased vehicle to a purchased vehicle. (f) Renewals of registration under this section shall be made annually, upon payment of the fee prescribed in subsection (a), in the manner prescribed in subsection (b) of K.S.A. 8-132, and amendments thereto. No renewal of registration shall be made to any applicant until such applicant provides to the county treasurer either the annual logo use authorization statement provided for in subsection (b) or the payment of the annual logo use royalty payment established by the board. If such logo use authorization statement is not presented at the time of registration or faxed by the board, or the annual logo use royalty payment is not made to the county treasurer, the applicant shall be required to comply with K.S.A. 8-143, and amendments thereto, and return the license plate to the county treasurer of such person's residence. (g) The helping schools license plate shall not be developed by the division until the state board of education has collected sufficient logo use royalty payments under subsection (b), to comply with the provisions of paragraph (1) of subsection (e) of K.S.A. 8-1,141, and amendments thereto. (h) The state board of education, with the approval of the director of vehicles and subject to the availability of materials and equipment, shall design a plate to be issued under the provisions of this section. (i) As a condition of receiving the helping schools license plate and any subsequent registration renewal of such plate, the applicant must provide consent to the division authorizing the division's release of motor vehicle record information, including the applicant's name, address, logo use royalty payment amount, plate number, school district and vehicle type to the state board of education and the state treasurer. (j) Annual royalty payments collected by county treasurers under this section shall be remitted to the state treasurer in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the helping schools license plate program fund. |
