(a) Any owner or lessee of one or more passenger vehicles or trucks registered for a gross weight of 20,000 pounds or less, who is a resident of Kansas, upon compliance with the provisions of this section, may be issued one Boy Scouts of America license plate for each such passenger vehicle or truck. In addition to the license plate, a person issued such a license plate may request a decal for the order of the arrow, wood badge, God and country award and eagle scout for each license plate. Such license plates shall be issued for the same time as other license plates upon proper registration and payment of the regular license fee as provided in K.S.A. 8-143, and amendments thereto, and either the payment to the county treasurer of the logo use royalty payment established by the council or the presentation of the annual logo use authorization statement provided for in subsection (b).
(b) A Boy Scouts of America council may authorize the use of their logo to be affixed on license plates or any decal as provided by this section. Any royalty payment received pursuant to this section shall be used to support the Boy Scouts of America. Any motor vehicle owner or lessee annually may apply to the Boy Scouts of America for the use of such logo. Upon annual application and payment to either: (1) The Boy Scouts of America in an amount of not less than $25 nor more than $100 as a logo use royalty payment for each license plate and decal to be issued, the Boy Scouts of America shall issue to the motor vehicle owner or lessee, without further charge, a logo use authorization statement, which shall be presented by the motor vehicle owner or lessee at the time of registration; or (2) the county treasurer of the logo use royalty payment for each license plate to be issued.
(c) Any applicant for a license plate authorized by this section may make application for such plates not less than 60 days prior to such person's renewal of registration date, on a form prescribed and furnished by the director of vehicles, and any applicant for such license plates shall either provide the annual logo use authorization statement provided for in subsection (b) or pay to the county treasurer the logo use royalty payment established by the council. Application for registration of a passenger vehicle or truck and issuance of the license plate under this section shall be made by the owner or lessee in a manner prescribed by the director of vehicles upon forms furnished by the director.
(d) No registration or license plate issued under this section shall be transferable to any other person.

(f) Renewals of registration under this section shall be made annually, upon payment of the fee prescribed in subsection (a), in the manner prescribed in subsection (b) of K.S.A. 8-132, and amendments thereto. No renewal of registration shall be made to any applicant until such applicant provides to the county treasurer either the annual logo use authorization statement provided for in subsection (b) or the payment of the annual logo use royalty payment established by the council. If such logo use authorization statement is not presented at the time of registration or faxed by the Boy Scouts of America, or the annual use royalty payment is not made to the county treasurer, the applicant shall be required to comply with K.S.A. 8-143, and amendments thereto, and return the license plate to the county treasurer of such person's residence.
(g) The Boy Scouts of America councils shall:
(1) Pay the initial cost of silk-screening for license plates authorized by this section; and

(i) A fee of $2 shall be paid for each decal issued under this section. Such decals shall be affixed to the license plate in the location required by the director.
(j) As a condition of receiving the Boy Scouts of America license plate and any subsequent registration renewal of such plate, the applicant must provide consent to the division authorizing the division's release of motor vehicle record information, including the applicant's name, address, royalty payment amount, decal types used, plate number and vehicle type to the designated Kansas Boy Scouts of America council and the state treasurer.
(k) Annual royalty payments collected by county treasurers under this section shall be remitted to the state treasurer in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the Boy Scouts of America royalty fund, which is hereby created in the state treasury and shall be administered by the state treasurer. All expenditures from the Boy Scouts of America royalty fund shall be made in accordance with appropriation acts upon warrants of the director of accounts and reports issued pursuant to vouchers approved by the state treasurer or the state treasurer's designee. Payments from the Boy Scouts of America royalty fund to the designated Boy Scouts of America council shall be made on a monthly basis.
