PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 321.179, subsection 1, unnumbered
  1  2 paragraph 1, Code 1997, is amended to read as follows:
  1  3    Notwithstanding the provisions of this chapter or chapter
  1  4 321L which grant sole authority to the department for the
  1  5 issuance of motor vehicle licenses, nonoperator's
  1  6 identification cards, and handicapped identification devices
  1  7 parking permits, the counties of Adams, Cass, Fremont, Mills,
  1  8 Montgomery, and Page shall be authorized to issue motor
  1  9 vehicle licenses, nonoperator's identification cards, and
  1 10 handicapped identification devices on a permanent basis.
  1 11 However, a county shall only be authorized to issue commercial
  1 12 driver's licenses if certified to do so by the department.  If
  1 13 a county fails to meet the standards for certification under
  1 14 this section, the department itself shall provide for the
  1 15 issuance of commercial driver's licenses in that county.  The
  1 16 department shall certify the county treasurers in the
  1 17 permanent counties to issue commercial driver's licenses if
  1 18 all of the following conditions are met:
  1 19    Sec. 2.  Section 321.179, Code 1997, is amended by adding
  1 20 the following new subsection:
  1 21    NEW SUBSECTION.  3.  Notwithstanding any other provisions
  1 22 of the Code to the contrary, a county treasurer in a county
  1 23 issuing motor vehicle licenses may retain for deposit in the
  1 24 county general fund five dollars of the fee for each motor
  1 25 vehicle license transaction, including, but not limited to,
  1 26 issuance or renewal of motor vehicle licenses or nonoperator's
  1 27 identification cards.  
  1 28                           EXPLANATION
  1 29    This bill removes the limitation on the number of counties
  1 30 which may issue motor vehicle licenses and expands the
  1 31 opportunity to do so to all counties in the state.  Currently,
  1 32 only Adams, Cass, Fremont, Mills, Montgomery, and Page
  1 33 counties may issue motor vehicle licenses.  The bill also
  1 34 provides that the counties may retain $5 of the fee collected
  1 35 for each motor vehicle license transaction for deposit in the
  2  1 general fund of the county.
