Carcieri will hold a press conference tomorrow morning to outline "a new reform plan" for the state's Department of Motor Vehicles. Last month the governor proposed closing seven of DMV's eight branches -- leaving just the Pawtucket office -- to help save money. The new plan would "provide improved service for Rhode Island consumers across the state," according to a press release. When reached this afternoon, the governor's spokesman would not clarify what the "new reform plan" might entail. "That's as far as I'm willing to go today," Carcieri spokesman Jeff Neal said. Tomorrow's press conference -- planned for the State House 11 a.m. -- will also feature details on the new central registry office to be built in Cranston. Posted by Steve Peoples CommentsThe Gov.'s office is run by amateurs who really do not know what they're doing. Its like a kids game where the DMV is concerned. Can you imagine well I'm not going to tell you the whole plan just bits of it and tomorrow I will tell you a little bit more. Closing seven branches of DMV is not the answer to saving money. Cut down on the Sales tax upon purchasiong a new car and cut out sales taxes on used cars. RI is the only state where a sales tax is levied on the same car each time it is purchase. Give me a break.
