Chapter 301

Effective - 28 Aug 1969   

  301.110.  Director may change registration periods to equalize work. — 1.  Whenever the director shall determine from an increase or decrease in the number of registrations of all types of motor vehicles in any given month that the volume of clerical work of registration of all types of motor vehicles in such month has become so disproportionate to the volume of work in the remaining registration periods as to render the system burdensome or inefficient, he is authorized and empowered to change the registration period of any number of motor vehicles, other than commercial motor vehicles, as may be necessary to increase or reduce the volume of registration in one or more periods by advancing the renewal date and shortening the registration period of such motor vehicles.

  2.  The shifting of registration periods shall be accomplished by notifying the registrants of the change, and giving them credit for that portion of the registration period not yet elapsed.  In such instances the director shall order the registrant to surrender the license plates and registration certificate held by him and shall assign and issue, without cost to the owner, new plates and a registration certificate designating the new registration expiration date.
