supports CASA, conforms to department standards, and is approved by the department.
(4) A person may apply for a CASA license plate if the person pays the taxes and fees
required by this section.

same as the amount of the taxes and fees for regular motor vehicle license plates; except that the
department shall collect an additional one-time fee of twenty-five dollars for issuance or
replacement of the license plate. The department shall transmit the additional one-time fee to the
