HB3611 Summary

• Secretary of State shall rescind driver's license suspensions or cancellations issued prior to the bill's effective date for specified violations including theft of motor fuel, mental disability determinations, liquor control violations, toll violations, and certain vehicle control offenses.

• Municipalities and counties must provide notice within 120 days to individuals whose licenses were suspended before the effective date for 10 or more unpaid parking, standing, or compliance violations, informing them of the right to a financial hardship hearing.

• Individuals may request a hearing within 45 days of receiving notice to demonstrate financial hardship, defined as household income at or below 300% of the Federal Poverty Level or participation in specified assistance programs.

• Upon determination of financial hardship, individuals may establish monthly payment plans of $25 (for debts up to $500, up to 18 months) or $50 (for debts over $500, up to 48 months), during which the municipality or county cannot pursue other collection methods.

• If an individual complies with the payment plan, associated fines and penalties are deemed satisfied; a fourth missed payment constitutes noncompliance and allows the municipality or county to pursue collection and license suspension.
