A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO PROVIDE FOR MULTIYEAR REGISTRATION PLATES FOR TRAILERS.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  G.S. 20-88(c) reads as rewritten:
	"(c) There shall be paid to the Division annually, as of the first day of January, for the registration and licensing of trailers or semitrailers, ten dollars ($10.00) for any part of the license year for which said license is issued.  Provided, however, upon the application of the owner of a trailer or semitrailer, the Division may issue for a fee of seventy-five dollars ($75.00) a plate and registration card that is valid for the duration of the vehicle owner's interest in the vehicle.  Notwithstanding the provisions of G.S. 20-64, the seventy-five dollar ($75.00) registration card and plate are not transferable to another owner or lessee for any reason and shall be surrendered to the Division when the vehicle is transferred, sold, or leased.  The multiyear plate shall be of a different color than the annual plate and shall bear thereon the word ‘multiyear'."
Sec. 2.  This act shall become effective January 1, 1990, and shall apply to trailers and semitrailers registered or reregistered on or after that date.
