Rhodes plans single license plate system for Ohio autos
Gov James A Rhodes today announced a plan to issue one rear license plate per car with mail renewal and a staggered monthly schedule. Elyria and Lorain keep auto license bureaus as 118 local outlets statewide, with smaller counties having one deputy in the county seat and larger counties receiving multiple deputies. The plan, modeled after Pennsylvania, aims to save about 6.3 million yearly on new plate issuance and more than 500 thousand in other years, pending legislative action.
