A BILL

TO AMEND SECTION 56-15-310, AS AMENDED, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE ISSUANCE OF DEALER LICENSES, SO AS TO PROVIDE THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES MAY ISSUE SUPPLEMENTAL DEALER LICENSES FOR PREMISES LESS THAN ONE-HALF MILE FROM THE DEALER'S PRIMARY PLACE OF BUSINESS UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES FOR A FEE THAT MUST BE USED BY THE DEPARTMENT TO DEFRAY THE EXPENSES OF THIS PROGRAM.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION    1.    Section 56-15-310 of the 1976 Code, as last amended by Act 459 of 1996, is further amended by adding at the end:

"(C)    A supplemental license may be issued for premises less than one-half mile from the dealer's primary place of business, if a sign is displayed as required for the primary place of business. The distance must be measured from the dealer's office that houses its records. A supplemental license is not required for premises otherwise adjacent to the primary place of business except for a public thoroughfare. The fee for the license is twenty-five dollars and must be placed by the Comptroller General into a special restricted account to be used by the Department of Motor Vehicles to defray the expenses of this program."

SECTION    2.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
