AN ACT relative to licensure of motor vehicle dealers.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
1 Dealer License; Separate License. Amend RSA 261:103-a, VI to read as follows:
VI. No dealer license shall be transferable, and a separate license shall be required for each separate place of business in a separate town or city, and shall be prominently displayed in the place of business operated by the person to whom such license is issued. A licensed franchised dealer shall not be required to attend a class as a condition of being issued a separate license for a separate place of business.
2 New Paragraph; Dealer License; Operation Prior to Licensure. Amend RSA 261:103-a by inserting after paragraph VII the following new paragraph:
VIII. A licensed franchised dealer that has manufacturer approval to operate an existing dealership location that has submitted a dealer license application and is waiting for state licensing approval shall be permitted to operate. This permission to operate shall be allowed if the dealer submits with the application a statement that the dealer meets or will meet all licensing requirements at the time of license approval.
3 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.
