FEES/LICENSES/PERMITS: Creates the "Classic Black" specialty license plate. (8/1/26)
SB 6 creates a "Classic Black" specialty license plate for Louisiana motor vehicles, available to owners of passenger cars, pickup trucks, RVs, motorcycles, and vans who apply. It requires at least 1,000 applicants before issuance and sets an annual $25 fee (plus $3.50 handling fee) to fund emergency vehicle training at the Donald J. Thibodeaux Training Complex. The plate features a black background with white border, Louisiana state seal, magnolia flower, and "THE PELICAN STATE" text. Fees collected are distributed directly to the training complex, separate from standard vehicle registration taxes. This is a procedural bill focused on license plate design and funding, not policy changes affecting broader legislation.
