Summary

Staff reported current accepted payments for CPLs are cash, check or debit card and noted rising debit fees; the origin of a referenced $150 charge was unclear and staff will ask Carla and Will and report back.

A staff member told the board that for concealed pistol license (CPL) and similar payments the office currently accepts exact cash, check or debit card, and that rising debit fees are making debit payments less desirable for the office and residents.

The staff member said the $150 amount cited as the "original" fee source was unclear; she had asked Carla and Will about that fee and expected staff to report back after confirming where the $150 originates. Board members asked staff to look into the fee’s revenue line and return with clarification in the coming weeks.

A committee member suggested waiting a couple of weeks for staff to investigate the fee and payment options before making any changes; no motion or formal vote was recorded on the fee during the meeting.
