Not Ranked
Approx 4 to 6 months ago, I brought the situation of the DMV not consistently following the Model Year registration to the attention of the Vice-Chair/4C's, CT Council of Car Clubs. For those that do not know, the 4C's have a paid lobbyist ( $1,100/mo ) that interacts with both the DMV and the General Assembly to represent the hobbyist interests. At times, the officers of the 4C's join the discussions.
The Vice-Chair offered that he is personally aware of successes in using the Model Year registration after 10-1-09, but did not share the names or any specifics.
In the last 4C's monthly bulletin, there was no mention of the 4C's or the lobbyist actively pursuing the issue. One of many possible conclusions, while not verified, might be there is no action being taken. Normally, activity of this nature is mentioned. The last reference from the Vice-Chair, X number of months ago, is to individually have a copy of the legislation with you and request the law be followed.
Keeping the discussion and resolution within the DMV, does anyone have a personal contact within the Senior Mgmt level of the DMV, i.e. someone that reports directly to the Commissioner ? Multiple specific examples would be needed for new registrations after 10-1-09 that did not receive the 1965/1966 Model Year.
