Reduced Hours Notice
Due to restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic, and out of an abundance of caution, all IN PERSON transactions were suspended in March 2020. This included pistol permit appointments, civil transactions, etc. We have now resumed in-person transactions on a LIMITED BASIS by appointment only. Please be patient as we can only do a limited number of transactions per day.
Transactions received through the mail will be processed as usual. We will advise when full services are able to resume.
If you have questions, please call (585) 268-9204.
