Applications are available at our office as well as via download from this website. Upon receipt, the Sheriff’s Office will review the permit application and notify applicants of their standing, including both denials and acceptances.

Applicants are advised they may not proceed with an activity until their permit application has been officially approved by the Sheriff’s Office.
