SPRINGETTSBURY TWP – In an effort to enhance road safety and accessible state government, Sen. Kristin Phillips-Hill (R-York) and Reps. Joe D’Orsie (R-York) and Wendy Fink (R-York) will host a license plate replacement event for motorists who live in eastern York County.
Two years ago, more than 100 citizens from the eastern part of the county benefited from the initiative, receiving replacement plates that met legal standards. Building on this success, Phillips-Hill, D’Orsie, and Fink are teaming up again to host this event free of charge to local citizens.
Date: May 1
Time: 5-7 p.m.
Location: 50 Commons Drive
York, PA 17402
York Area United Fire and Rescue

- Current vehicle registration (If more than one person is listed on the registration, please have all individuals present, with their valid driver’s license.)
Law enforcement officials will be present to inspect plates and determine eligibility.

Replacement plates will be mailed directly to recipients’ homes.
