SB 17-176

Senate Bill 17-176, titled "Motor Vehicle License Plate Appropriation," allows the Colorado Department of Revenue to use funds from various accounts to purchase and issue license plates, decals, and validating tabs for vehicles. The bill allocates $2,435,572, with most of it coming from a specific state account related to vehicle registration fees. A portion of this money will also support the Colorado correctional industries. Since the status is "signed," this means the bill has been approved by both houses of the legislature and signed into law by the governor, making these appropriations official.
