Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. § 1. Special license plates for members and supporters of the Boy Scouts of America bearing the legend BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA; fees.

A. On receipt of an application and payment of the fee prescribed by this section, and following the provisions of § 46.2-725 of the Code of Virginia other than those relating to the fee for the plates and its disposition, the Commissioner of the Department of Motor Vehicles shall issue special license plates for members and supporters of the Boy Scouts of America. Such license plates shall bear the Boy Scouts of America logotype as may be provided by the Boy Scouts of America and the legend BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA.

B. The annual fee for plates issued pursuant to this section shall be $25 in addition to the prescribed fee for state license plates. For each such $25 fee collected pursuant to this section, $15 shall be paid into the state treasury and credited to a special nonreverting fund known as the Boy Scouts of America Fund established within the Department of Accounts. These funds shall be paid annually to the Heart of Virginia Council for the Boy Scouts of America for redistribution to the councils of the Boy Scouts of America operating in Virginia as determined by those councils and used to support its programs and activities in Virginia. All other fees imposed under the provisions of this section shall be paid to, and received by, the Commissioner of the Department of Motor Vehicles and paid by him into the state treasury and set aside as a special fund to be used to meet the necessary expenses incurred by the Department of Motor Vehicles.
