Car registration license plate stickers no more

3. Not all cop cars have computers

Police services are so fragmented here, many depts are tiny with maybe 1 fulltime cop and part-time cops who also work at other jurisdications. These municipalities are already struggling with salary, benefit and pension obligations to cops, so they don't have extra money laying around for all the tech, incl laptops in each car.

Not printing/mailing stickers is supposed to save 3M/yr. That's what our R controlled legislature likes and they wrote the bill so there was no grant money set aside to help by plate readers. For municipalities that want to buy the readers, it will just mean local property tax increases which is ok because state Rs can then say they haven't "raised taxes".
