Minutes Content for Wed, Jan 31, 2024

The Chair opened the hearing on SB359.

Adam Siebers, Assistant Revisor, Office of the Revisor of Statutes, briefed the Committee on the bill (Attachment 1).  He said the bill provides a new distinctive Kansas City Chiefs license plate.  Subject to the 250 initial plate commitment and payment of up to $5000, initial registrations and subsequent renewals would be made through the county treasurer.  An annual logo use fee of $25 up to $100 would be determined by the Kansas City Chiefs Football Club with the fees going to the Hunt Family Foundation.  A member requested a complete list of distinctive license plates.

Senator Kellie Warren, District 11, testified as a proponent.  She reviewed the requirements for the plate, noted the unifying effect of having a Chiefs plate, and identified the apportioned direction for the fees.  Responding to a question, she replied that the Chiefs must approve the logo and will work with the agency in designing the plate (Attachment 2).

The Chair closed the hearing on SB359.
