STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS08772
The purpose of this legislation is to allow County Assessors to
appoint agents such as vehicle dealerships, to perform vehicle
registration duties provided there is approval from the
department. This change will open the opportunity for expansion
of auto license services without the expense of new buildings
and personnel, while maintaining county assessor offices as
primary providers of auto license services in the State of
Idaho.
FISCAL NOTE
No fiscal impact is anticipated with this legislation. Minor
programming development would be completed by departmental
programming staff. Equipment costs would be assumed by agents
seeking to perform registration services.
