 Introduced by M. of A. LEMONDES -- read once and referred to the Commit-
 tee on Transportation

 AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to the issuance
 of special number plates to veterans of the armed forces

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 404 of the vehicle and traffic
 2 law, as amended by section 21 of part G of chapter 59 of the laws of
 3 2009, is amended to read as follows:
 4 1. The commissioner may issue special number plates to applicants
 5 therefor in the same manner as other number plates are issued pursuant
 6 to this article. Such special number plates shall be issued only upon
 7 payment of an annual service charge of thirty-one dollars and twenty-
 8 five cents in addition to the regular fee prescribed by section four
 9 hundred one of this article. Application for special number plates shall
 10 be made in accordance with regulations promulgated by the commissioner
 11 with respect to issuance of such number plates. Provided, however, in
 12 lieu of the annual fee specified herein, the commissioner may establish
 13 specific categories of plates for which an annual fee of not less than
 14 eighteen dollars and seventy-five cents nor more than thirty-one dollars
 15 and twenty-five cents may be charged subject to the approval of the
 16 director of the division of the budget. Notwithstanding any other
 17 provision of this section, the annual service charge shall not apply to
 18 the issuance of special number plates to veterans of the armed forces.
 19 Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of this section, the differ-
 20 ence collected between the special plates fee or service charge set
 21 forth in this subdivision in effect on and after September first, two
 22 thousand nine and the special plates fee or service charge set forth in
 23 this subdivision in effect prior to such date shall be deposited to the
 24 credit of the dedicated highway and bridge trust fund.
 25 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
