SPECIAL LICENSE PLATES BEARING THE SEAL, SYMBOL, EMBLEM, OR LOGOTYPE OF
COUNTIES, CITIES, AND TOWNS (§ 46.2-749.4)

A. On receipt of a minimum of 350 paid applications and a design therefor, the
Commissioner may develop and issue special license plates whose design
incorporates the seal, symbol, emblem, or logotype of any county, city, or town.
However, in lieu of the minimum paid applications, a locality may elect to pay
the initial issuance fee costs to the Commissioner and the Commissioner may
develop and issue such special license plates immediately. If all affected
localities agree as to its design, the Commissioner may develop and issue
special license plates jointly for more than one locality. Each local governing
body of the counties, cities, or towns involved in the design of the license
plates shall agree as to the issuance fee and shall indicate to the Commissioner
in writing whether the license plates issued shall be revenue sharing or
nonrevenue sharing license plates.

B. The annual fee for plates issued pursuant to this section that are nonrevenue
sharing license plates shall be $10 plus the prescribed fee for state license
plates.

C. The annual fee for plates issued pursuant to this section that are revenue
sharing license plates shall be $25 plus the prescribed fee for state license
plates. For each such $25 fee collected in excess of 1,000 registrations
pursuant to this section, $15 shall be paid to the locality whose seal, symbol,
emblem, or logotype appears on the plate. These funds shall be paid to the
affected localities annually and may be used as provided by the local governing
body. For license plates issued jointly for more than one locality, these funds
shall be apportioned among the affected localities as agreed to with the
Commissioner prior to issue.
			The provisions of subdivision B 1 of &#xA7; 46.2-725 shall not apply to
license plates issued under this section.
