CITIZEN STAFF REPORT

INEZ — Residents will have two choices when renewing their standard license plate starting Monday in the county clerk’s office.

Martin County Clerk Susie Skyles showed off the new “Team Kentucky” option that features a light blue likeness of the sky above a green grassy feature that runs along the entire bottom of the plate. A dark blue Team Kentucky logo and county name rest at the left of the plate number.

As with the current standard plates, there will be an option to include “In God We Trust” on the face.

Current standard plates feature a white to blue fade as the background, with an outline of Kentucky to the left of the plate number. The county name is featured across the bottom in a dark blue reversed box.

Skyles said personalization and fees for both standard plates are the same as the current standard plates, as the new plates were designed and printed at no additional cost to the state.

Customers interested in switching to a Team Kentucky plate may do so at their regular renewal time at no additional charge. However, switching to the new design before renewal will incur a fee.
