YOU COULD SEE ADS ON YOUR VEHICLE REGISTRATION RENEWAL NOTICES UNDER NEW LEGISLATION SUPPORTED BY SECRETARY OF STATE JESSE WHITE. 

 

IT COSTS ABOUT 400 THOUSAND DOLLARS EACH MONTH TO MAIL OUT THE NOTICES, AND THE PRACTICE WAS SUSPENDED FOR SEVERAL MONTHS DURING THE BUDGET IMPASSE. THE MAILINGS HAVE SINCE RESUMED…BUT THE STATE IS ONCE AGAIN WITHOUT A BUDGET SAYS SECRETARY OF STATE SPOKESPERSON HENRY HAUPT.

 

 

HAUPT SAYS IT COSTS ABOUT 400 THOUSAND DOLLARS A MONTH TO MAIL OUT THE RENEWAL REMINDERS…SO THEY ARE LOOKING AT CREATIVE WAYS TO HELP COVER THE COST. THAT INCLUDES SUPPORTING A BILL ALLOWING ADS ON THE BACK OF THE NOTICES.

 

 

THE SECRETARY OF STATE IS URGING DRIVERS TO SIGN UP FOR EMAIL RENEWAL NOTICES INSTEAD OF SNAIL MAIL. YOU CAN DO THAT ONLINE AT CYBER DRIVE ILLINOIS DOT COM.
