All id cards and handgun permits will be electronic, the local police departments will no longer print and give out id cards or handgun permits. The approved applicants for a firearms id card will receive an email with a link to print your own card. The link will only be active for one year, after that time the applicant will not have access to print their card and will have to reapply. With this change all applicants who are applying for a firearms id card or handgun permit(s) are required to pay for the card and permit(s) before their application can be processed.  Any questions regarding the new online application process can be directed to any member of the police department.
