FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



Officials from the Department of Revenue (DOR) assume, based on information received from the Missouri 4-H Foundation, there are approximately 15,000 families in Missouri who would be eligible for the 4-H license plate. It is assumed that 5% of this membership will apply for the new plate type. The Motor Vehicle Bureau will require 1 Clerk Typist II for 60 hours of overtime to process these new types of plates. The MVB will also incur costs for policies, procedures and postage in amount of $2,244 and $2,820 for plates and tabs.



Oversight assumes these special license plates will replace standard license plates on vehicles owned by eligible persons and that any additional costs to DOR will be minimal and can be absorbed from existing resources. Oversight assumes DOR can absorb the cost of policy and procedure revisions, and postage from existing resources.

15,000 x 5% = 750 x $15 = $11,250/12 x 10 = $9,380 x 75% = $7,035 Highway

x 15% = $1,407 Cities

x 10% = $ 938 Counties

FY04 & FY05
