All applications for motor vehicle tags by mail and the correct amount of taxes and fees shall be received by the county license commissioner, on or before the last regular work day before the 20th day of each month, and the commissioner shall mail such tag not later than the end of the same month. The commissioner shall charge and collect a fee, not to exceed three dollars ($3), for each month vehicle tag issued by mail, in addition to all other fees prescribed by law. Such additional fees shall be paid by the owner of the motor vehicle with his or her mailed request for license tags and such fees collected by the commissioner shall be paid into the general fund of the county. The actual expense of mailing application forms to the owners of motor vehicles and of mailing tags as hereinabove provided, shall be paid from the general fund of the county upon warrants signed by the commissioner and approved by the county commission. The procedure authorized by this part for the payment of ad valorem tax and motor vehicle license tax and the issuance of license tags shall be an optional alternative to the procedure now provided by law. Each owner of a motor vehicle shall continue to have the right to pay taxes and to receive a tag in person without payment of a mailing fee.
