ROCKY MOUNT –The N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles is seeking applicants for a Commissioner Contractor to operate a license plate agency (LPA) in Plymouth, which is in Washington County.
The agency, which is at 101 Forest Road., Suite C, in Plymouth, is scheduled to close on March 10 after the current operator’s contract ends. The Plymouth LPA has been operated by Tonya Skiles Odell since 2015.
LPAs offer vehicle registration services and title transactions, as well as vehicle license plate renewals, replacement tags and duplicate registrations. Currently, 131 license plate agencies operate in North Carolina.
Three nearby license plate agencies offer service Monday through Friday:
• Edenton, 555 Virginia Rd., from 9 a.m.-5 p.m., 252-482-2424
• Hertford, 114 W. Grubb St., from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., 252-426-1087
• Williamston, 305 E. Main St., from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., 252-789-4560
In addition, services such as property tax payments and registration renewals can be completed online at www.MyNCDMV.gov.
The division’s policy is to open applications to operate a license plate agency after the expiration or end of a contract, or when the need arises for a new or additional agency in a certain county.
In North Carolina, NCDMV oversees LPAs, but the agencies are managed by private businesses or local governments.
Completed applications must be returned to NCDMV no later than March 17. The applications (Form MVR-93 or Form MVR-93AA) can be found on the
Connect NCDOT website. Interested applicants may call 919-615-8929 with questions.
