Resumen con IA This bill exempts veterans with a disability rating of 70.0% or higher from annual registration fees for one vehicle and provides them with free registration plates. It is expected to reduce revenue to the TIME-21 Fund by $1.5 million per year, though if that fund is at its cap, the reduction will affect the Road Use Tax Fund. The bill will also cost approximately $41,000 to produce special plates and $6,200 for Department of Transportation operations. (en inglés)2

Description
Senate File 185 (previously SF 61) exempts veterans with a disability rating above 70.0% from annual registration fees for a single vehicle. Under Iowa Code section 321.105, the Bill also requires the Department of Transportation (DOT) to issue one free set of regular vehicle or qualifying service type registration plates. Service-related disability ratings are classified by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
Background
Under current federal law 38 U.S.C. §3901 – 3904, veterans who experience the loss of extremities, severe injury/blindness to an eye, or severe burn injury are eligible to receive an automobile from the federal government. Iowa Code section 321.105(5) exempts veterans receiving an automobile or other vehicle from the federal government under 38 U.S.C. §3901 – 3904 from paying a motor vehicle registration fee and from the need to apply for a persons with disabilities parking permit. Veterans also receive one free set of regular or qualifying service type registration plates.
Assumptions
- As of December 2018, 12,589 Iowa veterans were classified at a 70.0% or higher disability rating. 8,229 were classified between 70% and 90% disability, leaving 4,360 at the 100% disability rating.
- There are 355 active disabled veteran plates.
- The active disable veteran plates are 100% disability rating, leaving 4,005 at this rating.
- Half of remaining 4,005 veterans at 100% disability participate and full uptake by veterans between 70% and 90% disability for exemption. Between the two there are an estimated 10,232 veterans participating.
- Vehicles will receive an average annual registration fee exemption of $140.
- A $3.68 cost per set of special plates.
Fiscal Impact
Senate File 185 is expected to reduce revenue to the TIME-21 Fund by $1.5 million per year. If the TIME-21 Fund has reached its cap, revenue deposited in the Road Use Tax Fund (RUTF) will be reduced. This includes approximately $41,000 to produce special service-plates and $6,200 in DOT operations towards the implementation of the Bill, with $4,700 being annual labor costs.
