Increasing the amount of fees retained by the county treasurer, the division of vehicles or a contractor for processing motor vehicle license applications and certificate of titles.

SB 119 increases the fees that county treasurers, the Division of Vehicles, or contractors can retain when processing motor vehicle license applications and title certificates. Specifically, it raises the retained amount from $0.75 to $5.75 per license application, $0.75 to $3.50 per title application, and adjusts county treasurer compensation formulas. These higher retained fees are meant to cover administrative costs for processing services. The bill amends Kansas law to reflect these increased retention amounts while directing remaining fees to specific state funds like the highway patrol and technology hardware accounts. It directly affects local government offices and contractors handling vehicle registration and title services.
