With the popularity of Iowa’s new blackout license plates, the Iowa Department of Transportation is providing a supply of the non-personalized, alpha-numeric version of the blackout specialty license plate to local county treasurer offices. As of Tuesday Marion County residents have the opportunity to exchange any plates for non-personalized blackout plates, saving the two- to three-week order processing time if ordered online or by mail. Marion County Treasurer Michaela Bigaouette tells KNIA/KRLS News if residents wish to replace their current plate with a numbered blackout plate they can come to the Marion County treasurer’s office. Assuming there are some still available, residents can purchase them for $35 dollars and the treasurer’s office will switch them out for you. If residents want a personalized plate they need to go online and order them from the Iowa Department of Transportation. If residents already have a personalized plate and want to switch them out for the blackout plate and keep the same personalization they will need to visit the treasurer’s office, fill out a form and pay a $60 fee. Bigaoutte says the treasurer’s office only received 50 plates from the state and as of Wednesday is already down to 12 with no known time of the next delivery. For more information regarding the plates, contact the Marion County treasurer’s office.
