Blackout special license plate deposit of revenue fund modified.

HF 305 amends Minnesota law regarding blackout special license plates by changing where the $30 annual contribution from plate applicants is deposited. The bill modifies Minnesota Statutes section 168.1287, specifying that these contributions must now go to the highway user tax distribution fund (under section 299A.705) instead of the previous account. This change affects individuals who purchase blackout special license plates, as it redirects the $30 annual fee they pay. The bill does not alter the fee amount, eligibility requirements, or plate design - only the fund receiving the contributions. The amendment takes effect July 1, 2025.
