Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 381 -- Department of Revenue Fee Offices

Sponsor:  Silvey

This bill requires the Department of Revenue to give first
priority to charitable organizations and then to local political
subdivisions when awarding fee office contracts.  No individual
or for-profit organization or entity can be awarded a contract.
Any fees collected by a tax-exempt organization or political
subdivision will be retained and used by the organization or
political subdivision.  However, no employee under any fee office
contract can receive more than $100,000 per year for his or her
services.

Beginning August 28, 2010, any person who waits 30 minutes or
longer at a fee office for service cannot be charged a processing
fee.  The department must develop and implement procedures for
determining the length of time a person has waited.

The department must develop and implement, by August 28, 2010, an
electronic license renewal system which must be used by all fee
offices for renewing licenses; and once every two years, the
State Auditor will be given access to all fee office records.
