- Live the Dream license plate fee distribution is restructured: up to 5% goes to the King Center as a royalty, and all remaining proceeds are deposited into the Historical Resources Operating Trust Fund to support the Historic Cemeteries Program for researching and recording abandoned African-American cemeteries, replacing the previous multi-organization distribution to sickle cell, reentry, scholarship, and homelessness programs
- Nine new specialty license plates are created: Margaritaville, Clearwater Marine Aquarium, General Aviation, The Villages: May All Your Dreams Come True, Cure Diabetes, Recycle Florida, Boating Capital of the World, Project Addiction: Reversing the Stigma, and United Service Organizations (USO), each with designated nonprofit recipients for annual use fees
