§ 404-u. Distinctive "keep kids drug free" license plates.

1.Any person residing in this state shall, upon request, be issued a distinctive "keep kids drug free" license plate in support of youth drug prevention and treatment programs. Application for such license plate shall be filed with the commissioner in such form and detail as the commissioner shall prescribe.

2.A distinctive "keep kids drug free" license plate issued pursuant to this section shall be issued in the same manner as other number plates upon the payment of the regular registration fee prescribed by section four hundred one of this article, provided, however, that an additional annual service charge of twenty-five dollars shall be charged for such plate. The additional service charge of twenty-five dollars shall be deposited to the credit of the office of alcoholism and substance abuse services and shall be used to support programs which seek to reduce alcoholism and substance abuse among the youth population in New York state through prevention and/or treatment. Such deposits shall not be used to replace, offset, or supplant any existing funding streams which aid the office, but shall be in addition thereto. Provided, however, that one year after the effective date of this section, funds in the amount of five thousand dollars, or so much thereof as may be available, shall be allocated to the department to offset costs associated with the production of such license plates.
