§ 46.2-749.4. Special license plates bearing the seal, symbol, emblem, or logotype of certain localities.

On receipt of a minimum of 1,000 350 paid applications therefor, the Commissioner may design and issue special license plates whose design incorporates the seal, symbol, emblem, or logotype of any county or city.

The annual fee for plates issued pursuant to this section shall be twenty-five dollars plus the prescribed fee for state license plates.

These funds shall be paid to the affected localities quarterly and may be used as provided by the local governing body.

Nowithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, on the basis of an agreement entered into by both the Department and a county or city, the Commissioner shall charge, in addition to the prescribed cost of state license plates, a one-time fee of twenty-five dollars at the time the plates are issued for license plates bearing the seal, symbol, emblem, or logotype of the county or city entering into the agreement.
