(1)Notwithstanding the provisions of this chapter, the cabinet shall by January 1, 1978,
establish a year-round system for the registration of vehicles under the provisions of
KRS 186.050(1). The system shall be designed so as to distribute the work load as
uniformly as practicable within the various offices of the county clerks, as well as
the cabinet, on a year-round basis. In implementing a year-round registration
system, the cabinet may establish separate and distinct registration years. Each
registration year so designated shall begin on the first day of a calendar month and
expire on the last day of the last calendar month in a registration period.
Registration periods may be designated to include less than twelve
(12)consecutive
months and registration fees shall be computed at a rate of one-twelfth (1/12) of the
appropriate annual registration fee per month in each registration period. The
cabinet may establish a registration year of more than twelve
(12)months except
that registration fees for designated periods of more than twelve
(12)months may
be paid at the option of the owner. The cabinet may promulgate reasonable
administrative regulations to carry out the orderly implementation and
administration of the year-round registration system. Any transaction relating to
registration or registration renewal which would cause an unexpired Kentucky
motor vehicle license plate to be surrendered shall have that unexpired fee prorated
or credited against any additional fee required by a subsequent registration.
