special plate; public education foundation

SB 1718 creates "Public Education Foundation special plates" for Arizona vehicle owners. To implement these plates, a donor must pay the state $32,000 upfront, design the plate (subject to state approval), and may combine it with personalized plates. For each plate, owners pay a $25 fee, with $17 of that amount going annually to the Public Education Foundation Special Plate Fund. This directly affects vehicle owners who choose these special plates and fund public education through the annual $17 donation. The bill does not change standard plate requirements or voting records.
